Ezekiel 41:5-11

5Next, the man measured the temple wall. It was 10½ feet wide. The width of each side room around the temple was 7 feet.

6The rooms were arranged on three different stories. There were 30 rooms on each story. These rooms had supports all the way around the temple wall, but these supports were not fastened to the temple wall.

7The side rooms grew wider all the way around as they went up, story after story. The surrounding structure went from story to story all around the temple. The structure grew wider as it went higher. A stairway went from the first story through the second story to the third story.

8I also saw a raised base all around the temple. This base was the foundation for the side rooms. It measured the full length of the measuring rod, 10½ feet.

9The outer wall of the side rooms was 9 feet thick. There was an open area between the side rooms connected to the temple

10and the priests’ rooms. It was 35 feet wide and went all around the temple.

11The doors in the side rooms were entrances into the open area. There was one door to the north and another to the south. The base of the open area was 9 feet wide all the way around.
