에스겔 40:5-11 KRV

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 40:8-9

The divergent measurements of this porch, which are given in these verses, led the LXX . and the Vulgate to reject Ezekiel 40:8 as spurious, and it is certainly wanting in some Hebrew manuscripts. Hitzig, Ewald, and Smend have accordingly expunged it from the text—an altogether unnecessary proceeding. The seeming discrepancy may be removed by supposing either, with Kliefoth, that Ezekiel 40:8 furnishes the measurement of the porch from east to west, and Ezekiel 40:9 its measurement... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 40:10

Having reached the furthest limit westward, the guide retraces his steps backward in an easterly direction, noting that on the side of the covered way opposite to that already examined the same arrangements existed as to "lodges" and "posts," the latter of which ( אֵילִים ) are here first mentioned in connection with the guardrooms, and must be understood as signifying pillars or jambs in front of the walls. Their measurements, which were equal, were probably as in Ezekiel 40:9 , two... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 40:11

The breadth of the entry (literally, opening ) of the gate, ten cubits. Obviously this measurement was taken from north to south of the gate-entrance ( Ezekiel 40:6 ), and represented the whole breadth of the doorway and the threshold, or one-fifth of the entire length of the gate-building. The second portion of the verse, the length of the gate thirteen cubits , is explained by Bottcher, Hitzig, Havernick, Keil (with whom Plumptre agrees), as signifying the length of the covered way... read more

Ezekiel 40:3-5. Behold, there was a man The same no doubt that appeared to the prophet, Ezekiel 1:20, (where see the note,) whose name is the Branch, and who builds the temple of the Lord, Zechariah 6:12-13; whose appearance was like the appearance of brass Bright and sparkling, Revelation 1:15. With a line of flax in his hand The use of the line was to measure the land of Israel, and of the reed to take the dimensions of the buildings in and about the temple; as also to set out... read more

Ezekiel 40:6-8. Then came he unto the gate, &c. After having passed the court of the Gentiles, he came to the eastern gate, or the court of Israel. For the temple being placed toward the west part of the holy mountain, as the holy of holies was at the west end of the temple, this was the first gate that led to it, and it opened into the court of the people: see Ezekiel 40:19. It is called the king’s gate, (1 Chronicles 9:18,) as being built by King Solomon. And went up the stairs... read more
