[40:13]  1 tn Heb “twenty-five cubits” (i.e., 13.125 meters).

[40:14]  2 tn Heb “made.”

[40:14]  3 tc The MT reads “jambs” which does not make sense in context. Supposing a confusion of yod for vav, the text may be emended to read “porch.” See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:518.

[40:14]  4 tn Heb “sixty cubits” (i.e., 31.5 meters).

[40:14]  5 tn The word “high” is not in the Hebrew text but is supplied for sense.

[40:15]  3 tn Heb “fifty cubits” (i.e., 26.25 meters).
