Ezekiel 42:1-9

1Then he brought me out into the outer court, by the way toward the north; and he brought me into the chamber which was opposite the separating courtyard, and which was opposite the building toward the north.

2Facing the length, which was one hundred cubits (the width was fifty cubits), was the north door.

3Opposite the inner court of twenty cubits, and opposite the pavement of the outer court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.

4In front of the chambers, toward the inside, was a walk ten cubits wide, at a distance of one cubit; and their doors faced north.

5Now the upper chambers were shorter, because the galleries took away space from them more than from the lower and middle stories of the building.

6For they were in three stories and did not have pillars like the pillars of the courts; therefore the upper level was shortened more than the lower and middle levels from the ground up.

7And a wall which was outside ran parallel to the chambers, at the front of the chambers, toward the outer court; its length was fifty cubits.

8The length of the chambers toward the outer court was fifty cubits, whereas that facing the temple was one hundred cubits.

9At the lower chambers was the entrance on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
