SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:3
Estas son las medidas de que Salomón fundó el edificio de la Casa de Dios. La primera medida fue, la longitud de sesenta codos; y la anchura de veinte codos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 3:3
Verse 3. The length-after the first measure was threescore cubits] It is supposed that the first measure means the cubit used in the time of Moses, contradistinguished from that used in Babylon, and which the Israelites used after their return from captivity; and, as the books of Chronicles were written after the captivity, it was necessary for the writer to make this remark, lest it should be thought that the measurement was by the Babylonish cubit, which was a palm or one-sixth shorter than the cubit of Moses. See the same distinction observed by Ezekiel, Ezek. xl. 5; xliii. 13.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The furniture of the temple. --Here is a further account of the furniture of God's house. Bot without doors and within, there was that which typified the grace of the gospel, and shadowed out good things to come, of which the substance is Christ. There was the brazen altar. The making of this wa not mentioned in the book of Kings. On this all the sacrifices wer offered, and it sanctified the gift. The people who worshipped in the courts might see the sacrifices burned. They might thus be led to consider the great Sacrifice, to be offered in the fulness of time, to take away sin, and put an end to death, which the blood of bulls an goats could not possibly do. And, with the smoke of the sacrifices their hearts might ascend to heaven, in holy desires towards God an his favour. In all our devotions we must keep the eye of faith fixe upon Christ. The furniture of the temple, compared with that of the tabernacle, showed that God's church would be enlarged, and his worshippers multiplied. Blessed be God, there is enough in Christ for all __________________________________________________________________
