New Testament

Ezekiel 42:2-11 God's Word Translation (GW)

2. The building that faced north was 175 feet long and 87½ feet wide.

3. Opposite the inner courtyard was an area that was 35 feet wide, and opposite the pavement of the outer courtyard were corridors facing corridors on all three stories.

4. In front of the side rooms was a walkway, 17½ feet wide and 175 feet long. The doors of these side rooms faced north.

5. The side rooms on the third story were narrower than those on the first or second stories of the building because the corridors took space away from them.

6. The rooms were in three stories. They didn’t have pillars like the pillars in the courtyards. That is why the rooms on the third story were set farther back than those on the first and second stories.

7. There was a wall which ran parallel to the side rooms and the outer courtyard. It ran alongside the side rooms for 87½ feet.

8. The row of rooms in the outer courtyard was 87½ feet long. The rooms that faced the temple were 175 feet long.

9. These lower side rooms had an entrance on the east side. A person was able to enter the outer courtyard through them.

10. There were side rooms parallel to the wall of the courtyard on the south side. They faced the open area and the building.

11. There was a walkway in front of them like the one that was in front of the side rooms on the north side. These side rooms were as long and as wide as the northern rooms. They had the same exits, dimensions, and doors.
