6. The side rooms were in three stories, one over another, and thirty in order. They entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side rooms all around, that they might be supported, and not penetrate the wall of the house.
7. The side rooms were wider on the higher levels, because the walls were narrower at the higher levels. Therefore the width of the house increased upward; and so one went up from the lowest level to the highest through the middle level.
8. I saw also that the house had a raised base all around. The foundations of the side rooms were a full reed of six great cubits.
9. The thickness of the wall, which was for the side rooms, on the outside, was five cubits. That which was left was the place of the side rooms that belonged to the house.
10. Between the rooms was a width of twenty cubits around the house on every side.
11. The doors of the side rooms were toward an open area that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south. The width of the open area was five cubits all around.
12. The building that was before 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.
13. So he measured the house, one hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, one hundred cubits long;
14. also the width of the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, one hundred cubits.
15. He measured the length of the building before the separate place which was at its back, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits from the inner temple, and the porches of the court
16. the thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, over against the threshold, with wood ceilings all around, and from the ground up to the windows, (now the windows were covered),
17. to the space above the door, even to the inner house, and outside, and by all the wall all around inside and outside, by measure.
18. It was made with cherubim and palm trees. A palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces;
19. so that there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. It was made like this through all the house all around.
20. Cherubim and palm trees were made from the ground to above the door. The wall of the temple was like this.
21. As for the temple, the door posts were squared. As for the face of the sanctuary, its appearance was as the appearance of the temple.
22. The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits. Its corners, its length, and its walls were of wood. He said to me, “This is the table that is before the Lord.”
