Ezekiel 40:28-47
28And he brought me into the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to these measures:
29and its chambers, and its posts, and its projections, according to these measures; and there were windows to it and to its projections round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.
30And there were projections round about, twenty-five cubits long, and five cubits broad.
31And its projections were toward the outer court; and there were palm-trees upon its posts: and its ascent was [by] eight steps.
32And he brought me into the inner court toward the east; and he measured the gate according to these measures:
33and its chambers, and its posts, and its projections, according to these measures; and there were windows to it and to its projections round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.
34And its projections were toward the outer court; and there were palm-trees upon its posts on this side and on that side: and its ascent was [by] eight steps.
35And he brought me to the north gate, and he measured [it] according to these measures:
36its chambers, its posts, and its projections; and there were windows to it round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.
37And its posts were toward the outer court; and there were palm-trees upon its posts, on this side and on that side: and its ascent was [by] eight steps.
38And there was a cell and its entry by the posts of the gates; there they rinsed the burnt-offering.
39And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt-offering and the sin-offering and the trespass-offering.
40And at the side without, at the ascent to the entry of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate, were two tables:
41four tables on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate, — eight tables, whereon they slew [the sacrifice],
42— and at the ascent, four tables of hewn stone, of a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high; whereon also they laid the instruments with which they slew the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.
43And the double hooks of a hand breadth were fastened round about within; and upon the tables [they put] the flesh of the offering.
44And outside the inner gate were two cells in the inner court, one at the side of the north gate, and its front towards the south; the other was at the side of the south gate, the front towards the north.
45And he said unto me, This cell whose front is towards the south is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.
46And the cell whose front is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, those who, from among the sons of Levi, approach unto Jehovah to minister unto him.
47And he measured the court, the length a hundred cubits, and the breadth a hundred cubits, four square: and the altar was before the house.
