Prophesy / Thought of the day 22 May 2025

THEN he brought me into the sanctuary and measured the doorposts, six cubits wide on one side and six cubits wide on the other side - the width of the tabernacle.

2 The width of the enteryway was ten cubits, and the side walls of the enterance were five cubits on this side; and he measured its length, forthy cubits, and its width, twenty cubits.

3 Also he went inside and measured the doorposts, two cubits; and the enterance, six cubits high; and the width of the enterance, seven cubits.

4 He measured the length, twenty cubits; the width, twenty cubits; beyond the snacuary; and he said to me,"This is the Most Holy Place."

5 Next, he measured the wall of the temple, six cubit. The width of each chamber all around the temple was four cubits on every side.

6 The side chambers were in three stories, one above the other, thirty chambers in each story; they rested on ledges which were for the side chambers all around, that they might be supported, but not fastened to the wall of the temple.

7 As one went up from story to story, the side chambers became wider all arround, because their supporting ledges in the wall of the temple ascended like steps; therefore the width of the structure increased as one went up from the lowest story to the highest by way of the middle one.

8 I also saw an elevation all round the temple; it was the fundation of the side chambers, a full rod, that is, six cubit high.

9 The thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits, and so also the remaining terrace by the place of the side chambers of the temple.

10 And between it and the wall chambers was a width if twenty cubits all round the temple on every side.

11 The doors of the terrace, one door toward the north and another toward the south; and width of the terrace was five cubits all around.

12 The building that faced the separting courtryard at its western end was seventy cubits wide; the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.

13 So he measured the temple, one hundred cubit long; and the separating courtyard with the building and its walls was one hundred cubits long;

14 Also the width of the eastern face of the temple, including the separting courtyard, was one hundred cubits.

15 He measured the length of the building behind it, facing the separting courtyard, with its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits, as well as the temple and the porches of the court,

16 The doorposts and the beveled window frames. And the galleries all around their three stories opposite the threshold were paneled with wood from the ground to the windows - the windows were covered.

17 From the space above the door, even to the inner room, as well as outside, and on every wall all around, inside and outside, by measure.

18 And it was made with cherubim and palm trees, a palm tree between cherub and cherub. Each cherub had two faces,

19 So that the face of a man was toward a palm tree on one side, and the face of a young lion toward a palm tree on the other side; thus it was made throughout the temple all around.

20 From the floor to the space above the door, and on the wall of the sanctuary, cherubim and palm trees were carved.

21 The doorposts of the temple were square, as was the front of the sanctuary; their appearance was similar.

22 The altar was of wood, three cubits high and its length two cubits. Its cornors, its length, and its side were of wood; and he said to me, "This is the table that is before the LORD.

23 The temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

24 The doors had two panels apiece, two folding panels: two panels for one door and two panels for the other door.

25 Cherubim and palm trees were carved on the doors of the temple just as they were carved on the walls. A wooden canopy was on the front of the vestibule outside.

26 There were beveled window frames and palm trees on one side and on the other, on the sides of the vestibule-also on the side chambers vestibule - also on the side chambers of the temple on the canoples. Ezekiel 41
