a fourth part: or, four square, 1 Kings 6:33

Reciprocal: Ezekiel 41:21 - posts

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So also made he for the door of the temple,.... The holy place:

posts [of] olive tree, a fourth part [of the wall]; which was five cubits, its breadth being twenty, 1 Kings 6:20; this door was a cubit wider than that into the most holy place, 1 Kings 6:31, more entering into the one than into the other; as more go into the church on earth than into the heavenly glory.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The door of the temple - The door, that is, which led from the porch into the great chamber of the temple. Its posts were “a fourth part of the wall,” or, “five cubits high,” which was, therefore, the height of the doorway.
