- Passing from the north to the south side of the temple ("And the wayª beforeª them [was] like the appearanceª of the chambersª which¹ [were] towardª the north,ª as long¹ as² they, [and] as¹ broad¹ as²² they: and all¹ their goings outª [were] both according to their fashions,ª and according to their doors.ª ... And according to the doorsª of the chambersª that¹ [were] towardª the southª [was] a doorª in the headª of the way,ª [even] the wayª directlyª beforeª the wallª towardª the east,ª as one enterethª° into them." {Ezk 42:11-12}), the prophet was shewn that the space of ground, which was before the temple on the east, measured 100 cubits. "For¹ the lengthª of the chambersª that¹ [were] in the utterª courtª [was] fiftyª cubits:ª and, lo,¹ beforeª¹ the templeª [were] an hundredª cubits.ª" {Ezk 42:8}
