26. Seven steps led up to it. Its porch was across from them. The front of each side wall was decorated with a palm tree.
27. The inner courtyard also had a gate that faced south. The man measured from that gate to the outer gate on the south side. The total was 175 feet.
28. Then the man brought me into the inner courtyard. We went through the south gate. He measured it. It was the same size as the others.
