Ezekiel 42:1-9

1Then he 1brought me out into the 2outer courtyard, the way 3toward the north; and he brought me to the 4chamber which was opposite the 5separate area and opposite the 6building toward the north. 2Along the length, which was a 7hundred 8cubits, was the north door; the width was fifty cubits. 3Opposite the 9twenty cubits which belonged to the inner courtyard, and opposite the 10stone pavement which belonged to the outer courtyard, was 1112gallery corresponding to 13gallery in three stories. 4In front of the 14chambers was an inner passage ten cubits wide, a way of one hundred cubits; and their openings were on the north. 5Now the upper chambers were 15smaller because the 1617galleries took more space away from them than from the lower and middle ones in the building. 6For they were in 18three stories and had no pillars like the pillars of the courtyards; for that reason the upper chambers were 19set back from the ground upward, more than the lower and middle ones. 7As for the 20outer wall by the side of the chambers, toward the outer courtyard facing the chambers, its length was fifty cubits. 8For the length of the chambers which were in the outer courtyard was fifty cubits; and behold, the length of those facing the main room was a 21hundred cubits. 9And below these chambers was the 22entrance on the east side, as one enters them from the outer courtyard.
