The wall of the building was 9 feet thick all the way around, and it was 157½ feet long. 13Then the man measured the temple. It was 175 feet long. This included the open area with the building and its walls. All together it was 175 feet long. The eastern side of the temple, including the open area, was also 175 feet wide. 15He also measured the length of the building facing the courtyard on the west side along with its corridors on both sides.
