Contextual Overview

1 Then the man led me into the Holy Place. He measured the walls on either side of the room. The side walls were 6 cubits thick on each side. 2 The door was 10 cubits wide. The sides of the doorway were 5 cubits on each side. He measured that room. It was 40 cubits long and 20 cubits wide. 3 Then the man went into the last room. He measured the walls on either side of the doorway. Each side wall was 2 cubits thick and 7 cubits wide. The doorway was 6 cubits wide. 4 Then he measured the length of the room. It was 20 cubits long and 20 cubits wide. He said to me, "This is the Most Holy Place." 5 Then the man measured the wall of the Temple. It was 6 cubits thick. There were side rooms all around the Temple. They were 4 cubits wide. 6 The side rooms were on three different floors, one above the other. There were 30 rooms on each floor. The wall of the Temple was built with ledges. The side rooms rested on these ledges but were not connected to the Temple wall itself. 7 Each floor of the side rooms around the Temple was wider than the floor below. The walls of the rooms around the Temple became narrower the higher they went so that the rooms on the top floors were wider. A stairway went up from the lowest floor to the highest floor through the middle floor. 8 I also saw that the Temple had a raised base all the way around it. It was the foundation for the side rooms, and it was a full ruler high. 9 The outer wall of the side rooms was 5 cubits thick. There was an open area between the side rooms of the Temple 10 and the priests' rooms. It was 20 cubits wide and went all the way around the Temple.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits,.... Not the side chambers before mentioned, as if there was the space of twenty cubits between each chamber; for another word is used; more probably the meaning is, that between the side chambers, or the void space before them of five cubits, and the chambers which were in the court facing them, was such a wideness of twenty cubits:

round about the house on every side; on all sides of the temple, where the above chambers were, west, north, and south.
