41:1 Then the man brought me to the outer sanctuary and measured the jambs; the width of the jambs was six cubits on each side.
41:2 The entrance was ten cubits wide, and the projecting walls on each side of it were five cubits wide. He also measured the outer sanctuary; it was forty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.
41:3 Then he went into the inner sanctuary and measured the jambs of the entrance; each was two cubits wide. The entrance was six cubits wide, and the projecting walls on each side of it were seven cubits wide.
41:4 And he measured the length of the inner sanctuary; it was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits across the end of the outer sanctuary. He said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.”
41:5 Then he measured the wall of the temple; it was six cubits thick, and each side room around the temple was four cubits wide.
41:6 The side rooms were on three levels, one above another, thirty on each level. There were ledges all around the wall of the temple to serve as supports for the side rooms, so that the supports were not inserted into the wall of the temple.
41:7 The side rooms all around the temple were wider at each successive level. The structure surrounding the temple was built in ascending stages, so that the rooms widened as one went upward. A stairway went up from the lowest floor to the top floor through the middle floor.
41:8 I saw that the temple had a raised base all around it, forming the foundation of the side rooms. It was the length of the rod, six long cubits.
41:9 The outer wall of the side rooms was five cubits thick. The open area between the side rooms of the temple
41:10 and the priests’rooms was twenty cubits wide all around the temple.
41:11 There were entrances to the side rooms from the open area, one on the north and another on the south; and the base adjoining the open area was five cubits wide all around.
41:12 The building facing the temple courtyard on the west side was seventy cubits wide. The wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length was ninety cubits.
41:13 Then he measured the temple; it was a hundred cubits long, and the temple courtyard and the building with its walls were also a hundred cubits long.
41:14 The width of the temple courtyard on the east, including the front of the temple, was a hundred cubits.
41:15 Then he measured the length of the building facing the courtyard at the rear of the temple, including its galleries on each side; it was a hundred cubits. The outer sanctuary, the inner sanctuary and the portico facing the court,
41:16 as well as the thresholds and the narrow windows and galleries around the three of them–everything beyond and including the threshold was covered with wood. The floor, the wall up to the windows, and the windows were covered.
41:17 In the space above the outside of the entrance to the inner sanctuary and on the walls at regular intervals all around the inner and outer sanctuary
41:18 were carved cherubim and palm trees. Palm trees alternated with cherubim. Each cherub had two faces:
41:19 the face of a man toward the palm tree on one side and the face of a lion toward the palm tree on the other. They were carved all around the whole temple.
41:20 From the floor to the area above the entrance, cherubim and palm trees were carved on the wall of the outer sanctuary.
41:21 The outer sanctuary had a rectangular doorframe, and the one at the front of the Most Holy Place was similar.
41:22 There was a wooden altar three cubits high and two cubits square; its corners, its base and its sides were of wood. The man said to me, “This is the table that is before the LORD.”
41:23 Both the outer sanctuary and the Most Holy Place had double doors.
41:24 Each door had two leaves–two hinged leaves for each door.
41:25 And on the doors of the outer sanctuary were carved cherubim and palm trees like those carved on the walls, and there was a wooden overhang on the front of the portico.
41:26 On the sidewalls of the portico were narrow windows with palm trees carved on each side. The side rooms of the temple also had overhangs.
41:1 And He brought me to the temple and measured the posts; six cubits wide on one side and six cubits wide on the other side was the width of the post.
41:2 And the width of the entrance was ten cubits, and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other side. And He measured the length of the outer temple, forty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits.
41:3 Then He went into the inner temple and measured each post of the entrance, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits; and the width on either side of the entrance, seven cubits.
41:4 And He measured the length of the inner temple, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, before the outer temple; and He said to me, This is the Holy of Holies.
41:5 Then He measured the wall of the house, six cubits thick; and the width of every side chamber, four cubits, all around the house on every side.
41:6 And the side chambers were in three stories, one over another, with thirty units in each story; and they extended to the wall, which the house had for the side chambers all around to be supports, so that there would not be supports inserted into the wall of the house.
41:7 And the side chambers that went around the house became wider as they went up by stories. Because the surrounding of the house increased upward around the house, therefore the house had width upward; and so one went up from the lowest story to the highest through the middle story.
41:8 I also saw that the house had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers were a full reed of six long cubits.
41:9 The thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits; and space that was left alongside the side chambers belonged to the house.
41:10 And between the chambers and the house was a width of twenty cubits all around the house on every side.
41:11 And the entrances of the side chambers were toward the space that was left, one entrance toward the north and another entrance toward the south; and the width of the place that was left was five cubits all around.
41:12 And the building that was in front of the separate place at the side toward the west was seventy cubits wide; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.
41:13 So He measured the house, a hundred cubits long; and the separate place at the back and the building with its walls, a hundred cubits long;
41:14 And the width of the front of the house and of the separate place toward the east, a hundred cubits.
41:15 And He measured the length of the building before the separate place, which was behind it, and its galleries on one side and on the other side, a hundred cubits. And the outer temple, the inner temple, the porches of the court,
41:16 The thresholds, the latticed windows, and the galleries of the surrounding side chambers with their three stories, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, even from the ground to the windows (now the windows were latticed),
41:17 To the top of the entrance, both in the inner house and outside. And on all the walls all around inside and outside, by measurement,
41:18 Were both carved cherubim and palm trees. And a palm tree was between two cherubim, and every cherub had two faces.
41:19 So there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on one side and the face of a lion toward the palm tree on the other side. So it was carved in and around the whole house.
41:20 From the ground to the top of the entrance cherubim and palm trees were carved, even on the wall of the temple.
41:21 The temple doorposts were squared. And at the front of the sanctuary was something in appearance like the appearance of
41:22 A wooden altar, three cubits high, and its length two cubits; and its corners, its length, and its walls were made of wood. And He said to me, This is the table that is before Jehovah.
41:23 Now the temple and the sanctuary had double doors.
41:24 And the double doors had two swinging leaves, two leaves for one door and two leaves for the other.
41:25 And carved on these, on the doors of the temple, were cherubim and palm trees, just like those carved on the walls. And there was a threshold of wood upon the front of the porch outside.
41:26 And there were latticed windows and palm trees on either side, on the sides of the porch, the side chambers of the house, and the thresholds.
