Ezekiel 41:10-26
chambers <03957> [the chambers.]
As the word rendered chambers is different from that used before, it is supposed there was another row of buildings, parallel with the side chambers, with a passage of twenty cubits between.
width <07341> [and the breadth.]
temple courtyard <01508> [separate.]
wall <07023> [the wall.]
This appears to have been a building erected at the west end of the temple.
measured <04058> [he measured.]
These verses (13-15) seem to intimate, that all the buildings of the temple occupied an area of 100 square cubits.
galleries <0862> [galleries. or, several walks, or walks with pillars.]
interior <06442> [with the.]
narrow <0331> [narrow.]
[ceiled with wood. Heb. ceiling of wood.]
windows .................... ground ..... windows .... windows <02474 0776> [from the ground up to the windows. or, the ground unto the windows. covered.]
Probably either by jutting out of the main wall of the temple; or by lattice work, or curtains, or by both.
entrance <06607> [To that.]
That is, the windows were placed above the height of the door, at the east end of the temple, and thus continued, at the same height, and at measured distances, along both sides of the holy place, to the wall of the inner sanctuary, in which there were no windows.
measurement <04060> [measure. Heb. measures.]
cherubim ............ cherub ... cherub <03742> [with cherubims.]
decorative palm trees .... palm tree <08561> [palm trees.]
cherubim ............ cherub ... cherub <03742> [and every.]
doorposts <04201> [posts. Heb. post.]
altar <04196> [altar.]
This must signify the altar of incense; which, both in the tabernacle and Solomon's temple, was covered with plates of gold. It is very remarkable, that in this temple described by Ezekiel, there is not the least mention of gold or silver, though there was such a profusion of these metals in the former; which may probably imply, that a glory of a more spiritual nature was intended under these emblems.
table <07979> [This is.]
before <06440> [before.]
cherubim <03742> [cherubims.]
