Ezekiel 42:1-9

1Then the man led me northward into the outer court and brought me to the rooms opposite the temple courtyard and opposite the outer wall on the north side.

2The building whose door faced north was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide.

3Both in the section twenty cubits from the inner court and in the section opposite the pavement of the outer court, gallery faced gallery at the three levels.

4In front of the rooms was an inner passageway ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits long. Their doors were on the north.

5Now the upper rooms were narrower, for the galleries took more space from them than from the rooms on the lower and middle floors of the building.

6The rooms on the top floor had no pillars, as the courts had; so they were smaller in floor space than those on the lower and middle floors.

7There was an outer wall parallel to the rooms and the outer court; it extended in front of the rooms for fifty cubits.

8While the row of rooms on the side next to the outer court was fifty cubits long, the row on the side nearest the sanctuary was a hundred cubits long.

9The lower rooms had an entrance on the east side as one enters them from the outer court.
