Gill's Notes on the Bible

From the ground unto above the door,.... From the floor of the holy of holies to above the door of it to the east, where was the entrance into it; or from thence to the cieling, as the Septuagint version: "were cherubim and palm trees made"; either in rows one above another, quite up to the place mentioned; or they were made so large, that each cherub and palm tree reached from the ground to above the door, or to the cieling:

and on the wall of the temple: that is, they were not only thus placed in the holiest of all; but in the temple, or holy place on the wall of it all around; and shows, that in the state of the church in the latter day, which this part of the building represents more especially, will be great numbers of Gospel ministers, who will faithfully and uprightly preach it to men; see Daniel 12:4.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 41:20. From the ground unto above the door — The temple was thirty cubits high, 1 Kings 6:2, the gate was fourteen cubits, Ezekiel 40:48. The palm trees and the cherubim were the same height as the gate or door. The windows were above the door.
