every side.
11 And the doors of the side chambers weretoward the place that wasleft, one door toward
the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was
five cubits round about.
12 Now the building that wasbefore the separate place at the end toward the west was
seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building wasfive cubits thick round about, and the
length thereof ninety cubits.
13 So he measured the house, an hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building,
with the walls thereof, an hundred cubits long;
14 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, an
hundred cubits.
15 And he measured the length of the building over against the separate place which was
behind it, and the galleries thereof on the one side and on the other side, an hundred cubits, with
the inner temple, and the porches of the court;
16 The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about on their three
stories, over against the door, cieled with wood round about, and from the ground up to the
windows, and the windows werecovered;
17 To that above the door, even unto the inner house, and without, and by all the wall round
about within and without, by measure.
18 And it wasmade with cherubims and palm trees, so that a palm tree wasbetween a cherub
and a cherub; and everycherub had two faces;
19 So that the face of a man wastoward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young
lion toward the palm tree on the other side: it wasmade through all the house round about.
20 From the ground unto above the door werecherubims and palm trees made, and onthe wall
of the temple.
21 The posts of the temple weresquared, andthe face of the sanctuary; the appearance of the
oneas the appearance of the other.
22 The altar of wood wasthree cubits high, and the length thereof two cubits; and the corners
thereof, and the length thereof, and the walls thereof, wereof wood: and he said unto me, This
isthe table that isbefore the LORD.
23 And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.
24 And the doors had two leaves apiece, two turning leaves; two leavesfor the one door, and
two leaves for the other door.
25 And there weremade on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubims and palm trees, like as
weremade upon the walls; and there werethick planks upon the face of the porch without.
26 And there werenarrow windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the
sides of the porch, and uponthe side chambers of the house, and thick planks.
1 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me
into the chamber that wasover against the separate place, and which wasbefore the building
toward the north.
2 Before the length of an hundred cubits wasthe north door, and the breadth wasfifty cubits.
3 Over against the twenty cubitswhich werefor the inner court, and over against the pavement
which wasfor the utter court, wasgallery against gallery in three stories.
4 And before the chambers wasa walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and
their doors toward the north.
5 Now the upper chambers wereshorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the
lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
6 For they werein three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the
buildingwas straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.

7 And the wall that waswithout over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the
forepart of the chambers, the length thereof wasfifty cubits.
8 For the length of the chambers that werein the utter court wasfifty cubits: and, lo, before
the temple werean hundred cubits.
9 And from under these chambers wasthe entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from
the utter court.
10 The chambers werein the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against
the separate place, and over against the building.
11 And the way before them waslike the appearance of the chambers which weretoward the
north, as long as they, andas broad as they: and all their goings out wereboth according to their
fashions, and according to their doors.
12 And according to the doors of the chambers that weretoward the south wasa door in the
head of the way, eventhe way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into
them.
13 Then said he unto me, The north chambers andthe south chambers, which arebefore the
separate place, they beholy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat
the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and the
sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place isholy.
14 When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy placeinto the utter
court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they areholy; and shall
put on other garments, and shall approach to those thingswhich arefor the people.
15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the
gate whose prospect istoward the east, and measured it round about.
16 He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring
reed round about.
17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
19 He turned about to the west side, andmeasured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred reedslong, and five
hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
1 Afterward he brought me to the gate, eventhe gate that looketh toward the east:
2 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was
like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory.
3 And it wasaccording to the appearance of the vision which I saw, evenaccording to the
vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the visions werelike the vision that I
saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face.
4 And the glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is
toward the east.
5 So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the
LORD filled the house.
6 And I heard himspeaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me.
7 And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my
feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall
the house of Israel no more defile, neitherthey, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the
carcases of their kings in their high places.
8 In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds, and their post by my posts, and the wall
between me and them, they have even defiled my holy name by their abominations that they have
committed: wherefore I have consumed them in mine anger.
9 Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcases of their kings, far from me, and I

will dwell in the midst of them for ever.
10 Thou son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their
iniquities: and let them measure the pattern.
11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the
fashion thereof, and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the forms
thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof: and
write itin their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances
thereof, and do them.
12 This isthe law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round
about shall bemost holy. Behold, this isthe law of the house.
13 And these arethe measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit isa cubit and an hand
breadth; even the bottom shall bea cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the
edge thereof round about shall bea span: and this shall bethe higher place of the altar.
14 And from the bottom uponthe ground evento the lower settle shall betwo cubits, and the
breadth one cubit; and from the lesser settle evento the greater settle shall befour cubits, and
the breadth onecubit.
15 So the altar shall befour cubits; and from the altar and upward shall befour horns.
16 And the altar shall betwelve cubitslong, twelve broad, square in the four squares thereof.
17 And the settle shall befourteen cubitslong and fourteen broad in the four squares thereof;
and the border about it shall behalf a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall bea cubit about; and
his stairs shall look toward the east.
18 And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; These arethe ordinances of the
altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood
thereon.
19 And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok, which approach
unto me, to minister unto me, saith the Lord GOD, a young bullock for a sin offering.
20 And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put iton the four horns of it, and on the four
corners of the settle, and upon the border round about: thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it.
21 Thou shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed
place of the house, without the sanctuary.
22 And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering;
and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse itwith the bullock.
23 When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without
blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
24 And thou shalt offer them before the LORD, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and
they shall offer them up fora burnt offering unto the LORD.
25 Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat fora sin offering: they shall also prepare a
young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.
26 Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate themselves.
27 And when these days are expired, it shall be, thatupon the eighth day, and soforward, the
priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will
accept you, saith the Lord GOD.
1 Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary which looketh toward
the east; and it wasshut.
2 Then said the LORD unto me; This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall
enter in by it; because the LORD, the God of Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore it shall be
shut.
3 It isfor the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the LORD; he shall enter
by the way of the porch of thatgate, and shall go out by the way of the same.
