エゼキエル書 41:10-12 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 41:1-11

We are still attending a prophet that is under the guidance of an angel, and therefore attend with reverence, though we are often at a loss to know both what this is and what it is to us. Observe here, 1. After the prophet had observed the courts he was at length brought to the temple, Ezek. 41:1. If we diligently attend to the instructions given us in the plainer parts of religion, and profit by them, we shall be led further into an acquaintance with the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.... read more

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

And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits ,.... Not the side chambers before mentioned, as if there was the space of twenty cubits between each chamber; for another word is used; more probably the meaning is, that between the side chambers, or the void space before them of five cubits, and the chambers which were in the court facing them, was such a wideness of twenty cubits: round about the house on every side ; on all sides of the temple, where the above chambers were,... read more

And the doors of the side chambers were towards the place that was left ,.... These opened to the void space before them; that is, those of the lower storey; the others must open to the winding staircase that led down to it: one door toward the north, and another door toward the south ; which is not to be understood as if each chamber had two doors; but either of the two doors, which opened at the top of the staircase to the north and south; or of the doors of those chambers, which were... read more

Now the building that was before the separate place ,.... The "separate place" is the holy of holies, which was separated by a vail under the second temple, and by a wall as in this, and the first from the holy place: "before or over against" which was a building, as it is rendered, Ezekiel 41:15 , a new building, not before taken notice of: and it was situated at the end toward the west : or "sea" F5 הים "ad mare, Piscator; obversa mari", Cocceius, Starckius. , the... read more

The length thereof ninety cubits - The temple, with the buildings which surrounded it, was eighty-one cubits long; add ten cubits for the vestibule, or five for the breadth of the separate place, and five for its wall; in all, ninety cubits. See the plan, LHIL. By the separate place I suppose the temple itself is meant. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 41:10

Ewald and Smend, following the LXX ; combine verses; 9 and 10 thus: "And that which was left between the side chambers of the house and the cells (along the inner court wall) was twenty cubits round about the house on every side." Interpreters who reject this combination of the verses explain Ezekiel 41:10 as a statement of the distance between the outside wall of the side chambers and the cells of the inner court. Between the two lay the wideness of twenty cubits ; i.e. a free space... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 41:11

The place that was left has been differently explained (see above on Ezekiel 41:9 ); but on any hypothesis the side chambers opened on the free space towards the north and towards the south, g.s. one row of chambers was entered by a door from the south, another by a door from the north. The corridor into which the chambers opened—whether between them and the house (Ewald, Currey) or between them and an outside wall (Kliefoth, Hengstenberg, Keil)—was five cubits broad. Thus the whole... read more
