Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 41:1

The Temple - Properly the holy place (a), as distinguished from the porch (G) and the holy of holies (B) 1 Kings 6:17; 1 Kings 7:50.The posts - The outer wall of the temple was six cubits thick Ezekiel 41:5. The eastern posts of this wall forming part of the front of the temple were ornamented with pillars, six cubits on each side.He measured the breadth - This breadth was twenty cubits Ezekiel 41:2. Omit “which was.” “tabernacle” is here the interior (the covered portion) of the temple. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 41:3

Went he inward - Toward the holy of holies. It is not said, “he brought me in,” but “he went in,” because the holy of holies was not to be entered even by a priest like Ezekiel, but only by the high priest once a year. So the “angel” enters and announces: the measurements.The post of the door - On either side of the entrance was a pillar, the two together making up two cubits. The first measurement of the door was from “post to post,” six cubits; and the second measurement, the “breadth of the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 41:5

The wall of the house - This was the outer wall of the temple itself. Its thickness of six cubits corresponds with the colossal proportions of the architecture of the east.Every side chamber - the side-chambers (D). These were a marked feature in Solomon’s Temple, and were probably used as storehouses for the furniture and property of the temple. The arrangement of these side-chambers differed in some respects from that of Solomon’s Temple, the object of Ezekiel’s vision being throughout to... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 41:6

Three, one over another, and thirty in order - i. e., there were three stories, and each story was divided into thirty chambers.The wall which was of the house for the side chambers - Not the wall of the temple but another wall Ezekiel 41:9 parallel to it, which might be said to be “of the house,” i. e., belonging to it. The side-chambers of Solomon’s Temple were built against the temple-wall, but in Ezekiel’s vision the desire to keep the temple still more separate and holy led to a fresh... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 41:7

An enlarging - The “wall for the side-chambers” had for the ground story its full thickness of five cubits Ezekiel 41:9 - then it was diminished one cubit, so as to form a ledge whereon to rest the beams of the floor of the second story, and again was further diminished one cubit for the floor of the third story. Thus there was an “enlarging” of the second story of the chambers by one cubit, and of the third story by two cubits beyond the breadth of the chambers on the ground-floor.A winding... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 41:8

The foundations of the side chambers - Therefore the height of the side-chambers from the floor was six cubits there being three stories, which corresponds sufficiently with the twenty cubits which was the height of the temple. “A great cubit” is probably an architectural term to denote the line of junction between two stories, which would be that of the ceiling of the lower and the floor of the upper story. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 41:9

And that which was left - i. e., the passage (F) between the side-chambers and the temple-wall, was five cubits Ezekiel 41:11.The place of the side chambers that were within - Within the side-chambers which belong to the house. The seer is giving first the height of the side-chambers Ezekiel 41:8, and then the breadth, from the outside of the wall of these chambers to the temple-wall. read more
