The Prophet Ezekiel: An Analytical Exposition
Gaebelein, Arno Clemens
Bible. Ezekiel -- Commentaries
And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he
measured the south gate according to these measures; And the little
chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof,
according to these measures: and there were windows in it and in the
arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and
twenty cubits broad. And the arches round about were five and twenty
cubits long, and five cubits broad. And the arches thereof were
toward the outer court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof:
and the going up to it had eight steps. And he brought me into the
inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to
these measures. And the little chambers thereof, and the posts
thereof, and the arches thereof, were according to these measures:
and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round
about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
And the arches thereof were toward the outward court; and palm trees
were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the
going up to it had eight steps. And he brought me to the north gate,
and measured it according to these measures; The little chambers
thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, and the windows
to it round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five
and twenty cubits. And the posts thereof were toward the outer
court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and
on that side: and the going up to it had eight steps. And the
chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates,
where they washed the burnt offering. And in the porch of the gate
were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay
thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass
offering. And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of
the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at
the porch of the gate, were two tables. Four tables were on this
side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight
tables, whereupon they slew their sacrifices. And the four tables
were of hewn stone for the burnt offering, of a cubit and an half
long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: whereupon
also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt
offering and the sacrifice. And within were hooks, an hand broad,
fastened round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the
offering. And without the inner gate were the chambers of the
singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate;
and their prospect was toward the south: one at the side of the east
gate having the prospect toward the north. And he said unto me, This
chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the
keepers of the charge of the house.
