En hij bouwde een voorhuis aan den tempel, twintig el lang, naar de breedte van het huis, en tien el breed, Vr aan het huis.
En het voorhuis, vooraan den tempel van dat huis, was in zijn lengte van twintig ellen, naar de breedte van het huis, tien ellen in zijn breedte, vooraan het huis.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the porch before the temple of the house,.... Which stood at the east end of it:
twenty cubits [was] the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; which was from north to south, and of the same dimension, so that they exactly answered each other:
[and] ten cubits [was] the breadth thereof before the house; which being added to it, make the whole of the building, most holy place, holy place, and porch, seventy cubits; the height of the porch is not here given, but in 2 Chronicles 3:4; where it is said to be an hundred twenty cubits high, equal to the height of the house, with the chambers over it; but there the breadth of the porch is not given, as it is here; by these dimensions we may observe the difference between the tabernacle and the temple; the temple was twice as long, and as broad, and thrice as high as that, see Exodus 26:8. This fabric was an emblem of the church of God, sometimes called an holy temple, and the temple of the living God, 2 Corinthians 6:16.
