4 And the man said to me, a“Son of man, look with your eyes and hear with your ears, and1 fix your mind on everything I show you; for you were brought here so that I might show them to you. bDeclare to the house of Israel everything you see.”
5 Now there was aa wall all around the outside of the1 temple. In the man’s hand was a measuring rod six2 cubits long, each being a cubit and a handbreadth; and he measured the width of the wall structure, one rod; and the height, one rod.
The Eastern Gateway of the Temple
6 Then he went to the gateway which faced aeast; and he went up its stairs and measured the threshold of the gateway, which was one rod wide, and the other threshold was one rod wide.
7 Each gate chamber was one rod long and one rod wide; between the gate chambers was a space of five cubits; and the threshold of the gateway by the vestibule of the inside gate was one rod.
8 He also measured the vestibule of the inside gate, one rod.
