Pada tahun pertama zaman raja Koresh dikeluarkanlah perintah oleh raja Koresh: Mengenai rumah Allah di Yerusalem. Rumah itu haruslah dibangun kembali sebagai tempat orang mempersembahkan korban sembelihan dan korban api-apian; haruslah tingginya enam puluh hasta dan lebarnya enam puluh hasta.
Bahwa pada tahun yang pertama dari pada kerajaan baginda raja Koresy diberilah baginda raja Koresy titah ini: Adapun bait-Ullah, yang di Yeruzalem, maka bait itu hendaklah dibangunkan pula pada tempat orang biasa mempersembahkan korban, maka hendaklah teguh-teguh segala alasnya; dan lagi tingginya enam puluh hasta dan lebarnyapun enam puluh hasta.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
In the first year of Cyrus the king; the same Cyrus the king made a decree concerning the house of God at Jerusalem, let the house be builded,.... See Ezra 1:1,
the place where they offered sacrifices; to God in times past, ever since it was built by Solomon:
and let the foundations thereof be strongly laid; so as to bear and support the building erected on them, as the word signifies:
the height thereof sixty cubits; which were thirty more than the height of Solomon's temple, 1 Kings 6:2 though sixty less than the height of the porch, which was one hundred and twenty, 2 Chronicles 3:4 and which some take to be the height of the whole house; and hence it may be observed what Herod said y, that the temple then in being wanted sixty cubits in height of that of Solomon's:
and the breadth thereof sixty cubits; whereas the breadth of Solomon's temple was but twenty, 1 Kings 6:2, but since it cannot reasonably be thought that the breadth should be equal to the height, and so very disproportionate to Solomon's temple; many learned men understand this of the extension of it as to length, which exactly agrees with the length of the former temple, 1 Kings 6:2.
y Apud Joseph. Antiqu. l. 15. c. 11. sect. 1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
It is difficult to reconcile the dimentions here with expressions in Zechariah Zechariah 4:10, Haggai Haggai 2:3, and even Ezra Ezra 3:12, which imply that the second temple was smaller than the first (compare 1 Kings 6:2). Perhaps the dimensions here are those which Cyrus required the Jews not to exceed.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezra 6:3. The height thereof threescore cubits — This was much larger than the temple of Solomon. This was sixty cubits high, and sixty cubits broad; whereas Solomon's was only twenty cubits broad, and thirty cubits high.
