Ezekiel 41 — Context

5

Then he took the measure of the wall of the house, which was six cubits; and of the side-rooms round the house, which were four cubits wide.

6

And the side-rooms, room over room, were three times thirty; there were inlets in the wall of the house for the side-rooms round about, for supports in the wall of the house.

7

The side-rooms became wider as they went higher up the house, by the amount of the space let into the wall up round about the house, because of the inlets in the house; and one went up from the lowest floor by steps to the middle, and from the middle to the upper floor.

8

And I saw that the house had a stone floor all round; the bases of the side-rooms were a full rod of six great cubits high.

9

The wall supporting the side-rooms on the outside was five cubits thick: and there was a free space of five cubits between the side-rooms of the house.

10

And between the rooms was a space twenty cubits wide all round the house.

11

And the free space had doors opening from the side-rooms, one door on the north and one door on the south: and the free space was five cubits wide all round.
