Ezekiel 33:30

33:30 “But as for you, son of man, your people ¹  (who are talking about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses) say to one another, ²  ‘Come hear the word that comes ³  from the Lord.’

Ezekiel 40:7

40:7 The alcoves were 10½ feet long and 10½ feet wide; between the alcoves were 8¾ feet. ⁴  The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate facing inward was 10½ feet.

Ezekiel 41:7

41:7 The side chambers surrounding the temple were wider at each successive story; ⁵  for the structure ⁶  surrounding the temple went up story by story all around the temple. For this reason the width of the temple increased as it went up, and one went up from the lowest story to the highest by the way of the middle story.

¹ tn Heb “sons of your people.”

² tn Heb “one to one, a man to his brother.”

³ tn Heb “comes out.”

⁴ tn Heb “five cubits” (i.e., 2.625 meters) according to the “long” cubit. See the note on the first occurrence of the phrase “10½ feet” in v. 5.

⁷ tc The Hebrew is difficult here. The Targum envisions a winding ramp or set of stairs, which entails reading the first word as a noun rather than a verb and reading the second word also not as a verb, supposing that an initial mem has been read as vav and nun. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:549.

⁸ tn The Hebrew term occurs only here in the OT.
