Ezekiel 40:22

And their windows, and their arches, and their palm trees, were after the measure of the gate that looked towards the east ,.... Ezekiel 40:14 , signifying that the light of the churches, their privileges, and flourishing condition, will be alike everywhere, as in one part of the world, so in another; see Isaiah 52:8 ,

and they went up unto it by seven steps ; or stairs, Ezekiel 40:6 , the number of them is not there mentioned as here, but the same in both; See Gill on Ezekiel 40:6 ,

and the arches thereof were before them ; the steps; or "within" them, as the Septuagint; the steps led to the arches of the gate, or to the porch of it, which were more inward.
