Ezekiel 40:6-16
6Then he went to the gate which faced 1east, went up its steps, and measured the threshold of the gate, one rod 2in width; and the other threshold was one rod 3in width. 7The 4guardroom was one rod long and one rod wide; and there were five cubits between the guardrooms. And the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate 5facing inward was one rod. 8Then he measured the porch of the gate 6facing inward, one rod. 9And he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its side pillars, two cubits. And the porch of the gate was 7faced inward. 10The guardrooms of the gate toward the east numbered three on each side; the three of them had the same measurement. The side pillars also had the same measurement on each side. 11And he measured the width of the 8gateway, ten cubits, and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits. 12There was a 9barrier wall one cubit wide in front of the guardrooms on each side; and the guardrooms were six cubits square on each side. 13And he measured the gate from the roof of the one guardroom to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits, from one door to the door opposite. 14He made the side pillars sixty cubits high; the gate extended all around to the side pillar of the 10courtyard. 15And from the front of the entrance gate to the front of the inner porch of the gate was fifty cubits. 16And there were 1112shuttered windows looking toward the guardrooms, and toward their side pillars within the gate all around, and likewise for the porches. And there were windows all around inside; and on each side pillar were 13palm tree decorations.
