Ezekiel 43:4-12

4Then the glory of Adonai came into the House by way of the gate facing the east.

5The Ruach took me up and brought me into the inner court. Then behold, the glory of Adonai filled the House.

6Then I heard someone speaking to me from the House, while a man was standing beside me.

7He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of My throne, the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of Bnei-Yisrael forever. The house of Israel will no longer defile My holy Name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution or by the corpses of their kings in their high places.

8Whenever they set their threshold next to My threshold and their doorpost next to My doorpost, with only a wall between Me and them, they defiled My holy Name by their abominations that they committed. So I have finished them off in My fury.

9Now let them put away their prostitution and the corpses of their kings, far from Me. Then I will dwell among them forever.

10“You, son of man, describe the House to the house of Israel, so they will be ashamed of their iniquities. Let them measure accurately.

11If they are ashamed of all they have done, sketch out the House for them, its layout, its exits and its entrances, its complete design, with all its ordinances and all its laws. Write it down in their sight, so they may observe its complete design and all its ordinances and do them.

12This is the Torah of the House: the whole territory around it on top of the mountain will be most holy. Behold, this is the Torah of the House.
