Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 41:12-26

Here is, 1. An account of a building that was before the separate place (that is, before the temple), at the end towards the west (Ezek. 41:12), which is here measured, and compared (Ezek. 41:13) with the measure of the house, and appears to be of equal dimensions with it. This stood in a court by itself, which is measured (Ezek. 41:15) and its galleries, or chambers belonging to it, its posts and windows, and the ornaments of them, Ezek. 41:15-17. But what use was to be made of this other... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 41:15-17

Ezekiel 41:15-17. And he measured the length, &c. Noldius translates this sentence more clearly thus: And he measured the length of the building which was before the separate place, [and] that which was behind it, or opposite to it; by which he understands the north and south porch, the east and west sides having been measured before, Ezekiel 41:12; Ezekiel 41:14.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 41:16-20

The whole interior of the temple structure, including the side rooms, was paneled with wood. Solomon’s temple was also paneled with wood but then overlaid with gold. The wood was carved with alternating cherubs and palm trees. Each cherub had two faces, the face of a man and the face of a lion, one looking left and the other right (cf. Ezekiel 1:5-25; Ezekiel 10:9-17). Cherubim (the Hebrew plural of "cherub") elsewhere in Scripture guarded the holiness of God (cf. Genesis 3:22-24; Exodus... read more
