Ezekiel 41:7 — Meaning and Application

After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of {every} side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side.

And the side chambers {were} three, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which {was} of the house for the side chambers round about, that they might have hold, but they had not hold in the wall of the house. {one...: Heb. side chamber over side chamber} {thirty...: or, three and thirty times, or, foot} {have hold: Heb. be holden}

And {there was} an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house {was still} upward, and so increased {from} the lowest {chamber} to the highest by the midst. {there...: Heb. it was made broader, and went round}

I saw also the height of the house round about: the foundations of the side chambers {were} a full reed of six great cubits.

The thickness of the wall, which {was} for the side chamber without, {was} five cubits: and {that} which {was} left {was} the place of the side chambers that {were} within.
