Ezekiel 42 — Context

As for the outer wall by the side of the chambers, toward the outer court facing the chambers, it was 87½ feet long.

For the chambers on the outer court were 87½ feet long, while those facing the temple were 175 feet long.

Below these chambers was a passage on the east side as one enters from the outer court.

At the beginning of the wall of the court toward the south, facing the courtyard and the building, were chambers

with a passage in front of them. They looked like the chambers on the north. Of the same length and width, and all their exits according to their arrangements and entrances

were the chambers which were toward the south. There was an opening at the head of the passage, the passage in front of the corresponding wall toward the east when one enters.

Then he said to me,“The north chambers and the south chambers which face the courtyard are holy chambers where the priests who approach the LORD will eat the most holy offerings. There they will place the most holy offerings– the grain offering, the sin offering, and the guilt offering, because the place is holy.
