Ezekiel 41

41 He then took me into the nave, measuring the jambs on either side; they were ten and a half feet thick--such was the a thickness of the jambs. 2 The entrance was seventeen and a half feet wide, and each front of the door was eight and three-quarters feet; he measured the nave, it was seventy feet long by thirty-five feet broad. Then, 3 passing inside, he measured each jamb of the entrance--three and a half feet thick; the entrance measured ten and a half feet, and the sides of the entrance were twelve feet and a quarter on each side. 4 The chancel itself measured thirty-five feet long and broad, in front of the shrine: “This,” he said to me, “is the most sacred shrine.” 5 He then measured the wall of the temple; it was ten and a half feet thick. Each of the side-chambers round the wall was seven feet broad. 6 There were three stories, each with thirty side-chambers which were attached to the wall for support but not let into it. 7 The higher the side-chambers rose, the wider they became all round the building, which they surrounded more closely than ever; you went up from the lowest story to the top by the middle story.

8 The temple seemed to be surrounded by a raised platform fully ten and a half feet high, on which the side-chambers rested; 9 their outside wall was eight feet and three-quarters thick; beyond that lay a margin of eight feet and three-quarters, 10 while a passage of thirty-five feet ran all round the side-chambers. 11 The doors of the side-chambers opened on the platform, one to the north and one to the south, the breadth of the margin being eight feet and three-quarters. 12 The annexe facing the western side of the rear-court was a hundred and twenty-two and a half feet broad; the wall round it was seven and a half feet thick, and it was a hundred and fifty-seven and a half feet long. 13 He measured the temple building--it was a hundred and seventy-five feet long; the temple court and the west building with its walls was a hundred and seventy-five feet long; 14 and the eastern part of the building with the temple court was also a hundred and seventy-five feet long, 15 while the length of the annexe with its arcades and side-walls in front of the rear temple court was also a hundred and seventy-five feet. The nave and the sacred shrine, with its outer porch, were roofed in; 16 all three had latticed loopholes and galleries, and the whole interior was wainscoted with wood; 17 from the floor of the interior up to the windows and over the door, as well as along the outer walls, 18 it was all panelled with kherubs and palms, a palm between each pair of kherubs and each kherub with two faces, 19 the face of a man turned to one palm and the face of a lion to the other. This ran all round the building. 20 Kherubs and palms were carved from the floor to above the door. 21 The wall of the sacred shrine was four-square; 22 in front of it there was something resembling an altar of wood, five and a quarter feet high and three and a half feet long, the tips and the base and the sides being entirely of wood. “This,” he said to me, “is the table sacred to the Eternal’s service.” 23 The nave and the shrine had two doors apiece; 24 and the doors had each two leaves that swung round; on the doors of the nave kherubs and palms were carved, 25 like those upon the walls. There was a heavy wooden canopy over the front of the outside porch, 26 and the porch had latticed loopholes and palms on either side of it. Then the side-chambers and the canopies of the building . . .
