  1  The chambers for the priests.
13  The use thereof.

- he brought.
   * Eze 40:2,3,24; 41:1
- the utter court.
   * Eze 40:20 Re 11:2
- chamber.
  This seems to denote a row of chambers in three stories;
  which appear to have been situated in the inner court, (here
  called the outer court in reference to the temple, ver. 13,
  14,) just before the separate place, at the entrance from the
  north.

   * :4; 41:9,12-15


VERSE 2 
 - Before.
  Perhaps this means, that the north door was 100 cubits from
  the entrance into the court; and that the door-way, or
  portico, was 50 cubits in length; or, that it faced one of
  the cloisters, the length of which was 100 cubits, and its
  breadth 50, which was the proportion of all the cloisters.

   * :2


VERSE 3 
 - Over.
  One side of these buildings looked upon the void space about
  the temple of twenty cubits, and the other toward the
  pavement belonging to the outer court.

- the twenty.
   * Eze 41:10
- the pavement.
   * Eze 40:17,18 2Ch 7:3
- gallery against.
   * Eze 41:15,16 So 1:17; 7:5


VERSE 4 
 - before.
  These seems to have been two rows of these chambers, and a
  walk between of ten cubits in width; with an entrance into it
  from the chambers, of one cubit in width.

- a walk.
   * :11
- a way.
   * Mt 7:14 Lu 13:24

  and the building consisted of the lower and the middlemost.

VERSE 7


VERSE 8 
 - before.
  Passing from the north to the south side of the temple (ver.
  11, 12,) the prophet was shewn that the space of ground,
  which was before the temple on the east, measured 100 cubits.

   * :8


VERSE 9 
 - from under.  or, from the place of.
   * Eze 46:19
- the entry.  or, he that brought me.  as one goeth.  or, as he

  Rather, "the breadth of the wall," that is, the breadth of
  ground which it enclosed.

   * Eze 41:12
- over against.
  These south chambers were exactly like those on the north.

   * :1,13; 41:13-15

VERSE 11
    * :2-8

- approach.
   * Eze 40:46 Le 10:3 Nu 16:5,40; 18:7 De 21:5
- the most holy.
   * Le 2:3,10; 6:14,17,25,29; 7:1,6; 10:13,17; 14:13; 21:22 Nu 1:9,10
   * Nu 18:9,10 Ne 13:5

   * Eze 44:19 Ex 28:40-43; 29:4-9 Le 8:7,13,33-35 Lu 9:62
- and shall put.
   * Isa 61:10 Zec 3:4,5 Ro 3:22; 13:14 Ga 3:27 1Pe 5:5


VERSE 15 
 - measuring.
   * Eze 41:2-5,15
- gate.
   * Eze 40:6-16


VERSE 16 
 - side.  Heb. wind.  the measuring reed.
  Estimating the reed at 10« feet, 500 reeds will be nearly
  equal to a mile; so that from this statement we find the
  temple, with its outbuildings, was built on a square, nearly
  an English mile on each side, and four miles in
  circumference.  This not only far exceeds the size of
  Solomon's temple, or that after the captivity, which was only
  500 cubits, or a furlong, on each side, and exactly half a
  mile in circuit; but is nearly equal to the whole extent of
  Jerusalem itself, which, when greatest, was but 33 furlongs
  in circumference, somewhat less than 4 miles.  This seems
  clearly to intimate, that the vision cannot be explained of
  any temple that has hitherto been built, or indeed of any
  literal temple, but figuratively and mystically of the
  spiritual temple, the church under the gospel, and its
  spiritual glory.

   * Eze 40:3 Zec 2:1 Re 11:1,2

   * Eze 45:2; 48:20 Re 21:12-17
- a separation.
   * Eze 22:26; 44:23; 48:15 Le 10:10 Lu 16:26 2Co 6:17 Re 21:10-27
