1
And he brought me to the Temple, and measured the pillars: six cubits wide on this side, and six cubits wide on that side— the width of the Tent.
2
And the width of the entrance was ten cubits. And the sides of the entrance were five cubits on this side and five cubits on that side. And he measured its length, forty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits.
3
And he went inward and measured the pillar of the entrance, two cubits, and the entrance, six cubits, and the width of the entrance, seven cubits.
4
And he measured its length, twenty cubits, and its width, twenty cubits, before the face of the Temple. And he said to me: “This is the Most Holy Place.”
5
And he measured the wall of the House, six cubits. And the width of every side chamber was four cubits, all around the House on every side.
6
And the side chambers were chamber upon chamber, three levels, and thirty in each level. And they entered into the wall that belonged to the House for the side chambers all around, that they might be supported, but they were not supported by the wall of the House itself.
7
And the side chambers became wider as they went upward, circling higher and higher around the House. For the surrounding structure of the House increased upward around the House. Therefore the width of the House increased upward, and so one went up from the lower level to the upper through the middle.
8
And I saw a raised platform around the House. The foundations of the side chambers were a full reed, six great cubits.
9
The width of the outer wall belonging to the side chambers was five cubits. And there was an open space between the side chambers belonging to the House
10
and the chambers, a width of twenty cubits all around the House on every side.
11
And the entrances of the side chambers were toward the open space: one entrance toward the north, and one entrance toward the south. And the width of the place of the open space was five cubits all around.
12
And the building that was before the separate place, at the side toward the west, was seventy cubits wide. And the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length was ninety cubits.
13
And he measured the House: one hundred cubits long. And the separate place, and the building, and its walls: one hundred cubits long.
14
And the width of the face of the House and of the separate place toward the east was one hundred cubits.
15
And he measured the length of the building before the separate place that was behind it, and its galleries on this side and on that side: one hundred cubits. And the inner Temple, and the porches of the court,
16
the thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries all around the three levels, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, from the ground to the windows. And the windows were covered.
17
From above the entrance, and as far as the inner House, and outside, and upon all the wall all around, inside and outside, were measured patterns.
18
And keruvim and palm trees were made, with a palm tree between keruv and keruv. And every keruv had two faces:
19
the face of Adam toward the palm tree on one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. Thus it was made throughout all the House all around.
20
From the ground as far as above the entrance, keruvim and palm trees were made upon the wall of the Temple.
21
The doorposts of the Temple were square. And before the face of the Holy Place was something with an appearance like this:
22
an altar of wood, three cubits high and two cubits long. And its corners, and its length, and its walls were of wood. And he said to me: “This is the Table that is before Yahuah.”
23
And the Temple and the Holy Place had two doors.
24
And the doors had two leaves each, two turning leaves: two for one door and two leaves for the other.
25
And upon them, upon the doors of the Temple, were made keruvim and palm trees, as those made upon the walls. And there was a wooden canopy upon the face of the porch outside.
26
And there were closed windows and palm trees on this side and on that side, upon the sides of the porch. And there were the side chambers of the House and the canopies.
