[6:2]  ¹ tn Heb “sixty cubits.” A cubit was a unit of measure roughly equivalent to 18 inches or 45 cm. Measurements in vv. 2-10 have been converted to feet in the translation for clarity.

[6:2]  ² tn Heb “twenty cubits.”

[6:2]  ³ tn Heb “thirty cubits.”

[6:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “twenty cubits.”

[6:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “ten cubits.”

[7:6]  ⁷ tn Heb “a porch of pillars.”

[7:6]  ⁸ tn Heb “fifty cubits.”

[7:6]  ⁹ tn Heb “thirty cubits.”

[7:6]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and a porch was in front of them (i.e., the aforementioned pillars) and pillars and a roof in front of them (i.e., the aforementioned pillars and porch).” The precise meaning of the term translated “roof” is uncertain; it occurs only here and in Ezek 41:25-26.
