Ezekiel 40:6

40:6 Then he went to the gate facing east. He climbed its steps and measured the threshold of the gate as 10½ feet deep. ¹ 

Ezekiel 40:49

40:49 The length of the porch was 35 feet ²  and the width 19¼ feet; ³  steps ⁴  led up to it, and there were pillars beside the jambs on either side.

Ezekiel 43:17

43:17 The ledge is 24½ feet ⁵  long and 24½ feet wide on four sides; the border around it is 10½ inches, ⁶  and its surrounding base 1¾ feet. ⁷  Its steps face east.”

¹ tn The Hebrew text adds “the one threshold 10½ feet deep.” This is probably an accidental duplication of what precedes. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:517.

² tn Heb “twenty cubits” (i.e., 10.5 meters).

³ tn Heb “eleven cubits” (i.e., 5.775 meters).

⁴ tc The LXX reads “ten steps.”

³ tn Heb “fourteen”; the word “cubits” is not in the Hebrew text but is understood from the context; the phrase occurs again later in this verse. Fourteen cubits is about 7.35 meters.

⁴ tn Heb “half a cubit” (i.e., 26.25 cm).

⁵ tn Heb “one cubit” (i.e., 52.5 cm).
