Ezekiel 41:1

Tabernacle] should probably be 'posts.'

The Holy of Holies (Ezekiel 41:3), Fig. 2, chapter Ezekiel did not accompany the measurer into this sacred chamber. The posts of the entrance (ef) were two cubits across. The entrance itself was 6 cubits wide (ee, ff) and the sidewalls (kf, fk) were of 7 cubits each. The chamber itself was a square of 20 cubits each way.

The Side Chambers (Ezekiel 41:5). The Temple had a double wall, the inner being 6 cubits

thick (Ezekiel 41:5), and the outer 5 cubits thick (Ezekiel 41:9). Between these was a space of 4 cubits (D), which was occupied by 30 chambers arranged in three stories. The chambers in each story were wider than those below, as the supporting beams were not let into the Temple wall, but rested on ledges, which took away successively from the thickness of the wall (Fig. 4).
