Ezekiel 40:16-36

16There were closed windows toward the alcoves and toward their jambs within the gate all around, and likewise for the porches. There were windows all around the inside, and on each jamb were decorative palm trees.

17Then he brought me to the outer court. I saw chambers there, and a pavement made for the court all around; thirty chambers faced the pavement.

18The pavement was beside the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.

19Then he measured the width from before the lower gate to the front of the exterior of the inner court as 175 feet on the east and on the north.

20He measured the length and width of the gate of the outer court which faces north.

21Its alcoves, three on each side, and its jambs and porches had the same measurement as the first gate; 87½ feet long and 43¾ feet wide.

22Its windows, its porches, and its decorative palm trees had the same measurement as the gate which faced east. Seven steps led up to it, and its porch was in front of them.

23Opposite the gate on the north and the east was a gate of the inner court; he measured the distance from gate to gate at 175 feet.

24Then he led me toward the south. I saw a gate on the south. He measured its jambs and its porches; they had the same dimensions as the others.

25There were windows all around it and its porches, like the windows of the others; 87½ feet long and 43¾ feet wide.

26There were seven steps going up to it; its porches were in front of them. It had decorative palm trees on its jambs, one on either side.

27The inner court had a gate toward the south; he measured it from gate to gate toward the south as 175 feet.

28Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate. He measured the south gate; it had the same dimensions as the others.

29Its alcoves, its jambs, and its porches had the same dimensions as the others, and there were windows all around it and its porches; its length was 87½ feet and its width 43¾ feet.

30There were porches all around, 43¾ feet long and 8¾ feet wide.

31Its porches faced the outer court, and decorative palm trees were on its jambs, and its stairway had eight steps.

32Then he brought me to the inner court on the east side. He measured the gate; it had the same dimensions as the others.

33Its alcoves, its jambs, and its porches had the same dimensions as the others, and there were windows all around it and its porches; its length was 87½ feet and its width 43¾ feet.

34Its porches faced the outer court, it had decorative palm trees on its jambs, and its stairway had eight steps.

35Then he brought me to the north gate, and he measured it; it had the same dimensions as the others –

36its alcoves, its jambs, and its porches. It had windows all around it; its length was 87½ feet and its width 43¾ feet.
