1 Next he brought me into the great hall and measured the jambs; on each side the width of the jamb was 10 1 /2 feet. Then he brought me to the nave and measured the jambs. On each side six cubits was the breadth of the jambs. Then the man brought me to the main hall and measured the jambs; the width of the jambs was six cubits on each side.
2 The width of the entrance was 17 1 /2 feet, and the side walls of the entrance were 8 3 /4 feet wide on each side. He also measured the length of the great hall, 70 feet, and the width, 35 feet. And the breadth of the entrance was ten cubits, and the sidewalls of the entrance were five cubits on either side. And he measured the length of the nave, forty cubits, and its breadth, twenty cubits. The entrance was ten cubits wide, and the projecting walls on each side of it were five cubits wide. He also measured the main hall; it was forty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.
3 He went inside the next room and measured the jambs at the entrance; they were 3 1 /2 feet wide. The entrance was 10 1 /2 feet wide, and the width of the entrance’s side walls on each side was 12 1 /4 feet. Then he went into the inner room and measured the jambs of the entrance, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits; and the sidewalls on either side of the entrance, seven cubits. Then he went into the inner sanctuary and measured the jambs of the entrance; each was two cubits wide. The entrance was six cubits wide, and the projecting walls on each side of it were seven cubits wide.
4 He then measured the length of the room adjacent to the great hall, 35 feet, and the width, 35 feet. And he said to me, “This is the most holy place.” And he measured the length of the room, twenty cubits, and its breadth, twenty cubits, across the nave. And he said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.” And he measured the length of the inner sanctuary; it was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits across the end of the main hall. He said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.”
5 Then he measured the wall of the temple; it was 10 1 /2 feet thick. The width of the side rooms all around the temple was 7 feet. Then he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits thick, and the breadth of the side chambers, four cubits, all around the temple. Then he measured the wall of the temple; it was six cubits thick, and each side room around the temple was four cubits wide.
6 The side rooms were arranged one above another in three stories of thirty rooms each. There were ledges on the wall of the temple all around to serve as supports for the side rooms, so that the supports would not be in the temple wall itself. And the side chambers were in three stories, one over another, thirty in each story. There were offsets all around the wall of the temple to serve as supports for the side chambers, so that they should not be supported by the wall of the temple. The side rooms were on three levels, one above another, thirty on each level. There were ledges all around the wall of the temple to serve as supports for the side rooms, so that the supports were not inserted into the wall of the temple.
7 The side rooms surrounding the temple widened at each successive story, for the structure surrounding the temple went up by stages. This was the reason for the temple’s broadness as it rose. And so, one would go up from the lowest story to the highest by means of the middle one. And it became broader as it wound upward to the side chambers, because the temple was enclosed upward all around the temple. Thus the temple had a broad area upward, and so one went up from the lowest story to the top story through the middle story. The side rooms all around the temple were wider at each successive level. The structure surrounding the temple was built in ascending stages, so that the rooms widened as one went upward. A stairway went up from the lowest floor to the top floor through the middle floor.
8 I saw that the temple had a raised platform surrounding it; this foundation for the side rooms was 10 1 /2 feet high. I saw also that the temple had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers measured a full reed of six long cubits. I saw that the temple had a raised base all around it, forming the foundation of the side rooms. It was the length of the rod, six long cubits.
9 The thickness of the outer wall of the side rooms was 8 3 /4 feet. The free space between the side rooms of the temple The thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits. The free space between the side chambers of the temple and the The outer wall of the side rooms was five cubits thick. The open area between the side rooms of the temple
10 and the outer chambers was 35 feet wide all around the temple. other chambers was a breadth of twenty cubits all around the temple on every side. and the priests’ rooms was twenty cubits wide all around the temple.
11 The side rooms opened into the free space, one entrance toward the north and another to the south. The area of free space was 8 3 /4 feet wide all around. And the doors of the side chambers opened on the free space, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south. And the breadth of the free space was five cubits all around. There were entrances to the side rooms from the open area, one on the north and another on the south; and the base adjoining the open area was five cubits wide all around.
12 Now the building that faced the temple yard toward the west was 122 1 /2 feet wide. The wall of the building was 8 3 /4 feet thick on all sides, and the building’s length was 157 1 /2 feet. The building that was facing the separate yard on the west side was seventy cubits broad, and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits. The building facing the temple courtyard on the west side was seventy cubits wide. The wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length was ninety cubits.
13 Then the man measured the temple; it was 175 feet long. In addition, the temple yard and the building, including its walls, were 175 feet long. Then he measured the temple, a hundred cubits long; and the yard and the building with its walls, a hundred cubits long; Then he measured the temple; it was a hundred cubits long, and the temple courtyard and the building with its walls were also a hundred cubits long.

15 Next he measured the length of the building facing the temple yard to the west, with its galleries on each side; it was 175 feet. The interior of the great hall and the porticoes of the court— Then he measured the length of the building facing the yard that was at the back and its galleries on either side, a hundred cubits. The inside of the nave and the vestibules of the court, Then he measured the length of the building facing the courtyard at the rear of the temple, including its galleries on each side; it was a hundred cubits. The main hall, the inner sanctuary and the portico facing the court,
16 the thresholds, the beveled windows, and the balconies all around with their three levels opposite the threshold—were overlaid with wood on all sides. They were paneled from the ground to the windows (but the windows were covered), the thresholds and the narrow windows and the galleries all around the three of them, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, from the floor up to the windows (now the windows were covered), as well as the thresholds and the narrow windows and galleries around the three of them—everything beyond and including the threshold was covered with wood. The floor, the wall up to the windows, and the windows were covered.

On every wall all around, on the inside and outside, was a pattern to the space above the door, even to the inner room, and on the outside. And on all the walls all around, inside and outside, was a measured pattern. In the space above the outside of the entrance to the inner sanctuary and on the walls at regular intervals all around the inner and outer sanctuary

Palm trees alternated with cherubim. Each cherub had two faces:
19 a human face turned toward the palm tree on one side, and a lion’s face turned toward it on the other. They were carved throughout the temple on all sides. a human face toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. They were carved on the whole temple all around. the face of a human being toward the palm tree on one side and the face of a lion toward the palm tree on the other. They were carved all around the whole temple.
20 Cherubim and palm trees were carved from the ground to the top of the entrance and on the wall of the great hall. From the floor to above the door, cherubim and palm trees were carved; similarly the wall of the nave. From the floor to the area above the entrance, cherubim and palm trees were carved on the wall of the main hall.
21 The doorposts of the great hall were square, and the front of the sanctuary had the same appearance. The doorposts of the nave were squared, and in front of the Holy Place was something resembling The main hall had a rectangular doorframe, and the one at the front of the Most Holy Place was similar.
