Ezekiel 40:6-16
6Then he went to the gate facing east. He climbed its steps and measured the threshold of the gate as 10½ feet deep.
7The alcoves were 10½ feet long and 10½ feet wide; between the alcoves were 8¾ feet. The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate facing inward was 10½ feet.
8Then he measured the porch of the gate facing inward as 10½ feet.
9He measured the porch of the gate as 14 feet, and its jambs as 3½ feet; the porch of the gate faced inward.
10There were three alcoves on each side of the east gate; the three had the same measurement, and the jambs on either side had the same measurement.
11He measured the width of the entrance of the gateway as 17½ feet, and the length of the gateway as 22¾ feet.
12There was a barrier in front of the alcoves, 1¾ feet on either side; the alcoves were 10½ feet on either side.
13He measured the gateway from the roof of one alcove to the roof of the other, a width of 43¾ feet from one entrance to the opposite one.
14He measured the porch at 105 feet high; the gateway went all around to the jamb of the courtyard.
15From the front of the entrance gate to the porch of the inner gate was 87½ feet.
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.
