The Inner Courtyard and the Temple Building (EZK 40:47-41:4)

[40:47] The man measured the inner courtyard, and it was 168 feet square. The Temple was on the west side, and in front of it was an altar.

[40:48] Then he took me into the entrance room of the Temple. He measured the entranceway: it was 9 feet deep and 24 feet wide, with walls 5 feet thick on either side.

[40:49] Steps led up to the entrance room, which was 34 feet wide and 20 feet deep. There were two columns, one on each side of the entrance.

[41:1] Next, the man took me into the central room, the Holy Place. He measured the passageway into it: it was 10 feet deep

[41:2] and 18 feet wide, with walls 8 feet thick on either side. He measured the room itself: it was 68 feet long and 34 feet wide.

[41:3] Then he went to the innermost room. He measured the passageway into it: it was 3 feet deep and 10 feet wide, with walls on either side 12 feet thick.

[41:4] He measured the room itself, and it was 34 feet square. This room was beyond the central room. Then he said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.”
