Ezekiel 42 — Context

1

Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north.

2

Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.

3

Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.

4

And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.

5

Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.

6

For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.

7

And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
