The Babylonian Exile

And betweene the chambers was the widenes of twentie cubites round about the House on euery side.

And the doores of the chambers were toward the place that remained, one doore toward the North, and another doore toward the South, and the breadth of the place that remained, was fiue cubites round about.

Nowe the building that was before the separate place toward the West corner, was seuentie cubites broad, and the wall of the building was fiue cubites thick, round about, and ye length ninetie cubites.

So he measured the house an hundreth cubites long, and the separate place and the building with the walles thereof were an hundreth cubites long.

Also the breadth of the forefront of the house and of the separate place towarde the East, was an hundreth cubites.

And hee measured the length of the building, ouer against the separate place, which was behinde it, and the chambers on the one side and on the other side an hundreth cubites with the Temple within, and the arches of the court.

The postes and the narowe windowes, and the chambers round about, on three sides ouer against the postes, sieled with cedar wood rounde about, and from the ground vp to the windowes, and the windowes were sieled.

And from aboue the doore vnto the inner house and without, and by all the wall rounde about within and without it was sieled according to the measure.

And it was made with Cherubims and palme trees, so that a palme tree was betweene a Cherub and a Cherub: and euery Cherub had two faces.

So that the face of a man was towarde the palme tree on the one side, and the face of a lyon toward the palme tree on the other side: thus was it made through all the house round about.

From the grounde vnto aboue the doore were Cherubims and palme trees made as in the wall of the Temple.

The postes of the Temple were squared, and thus to looke vnto was the similitude and forme of the Sanctuarie.

The altar of wood was three cubites hie, and the length thereof two cubites, and the corners thereof and the length thereof and the sides thereof were of wood. And he sayd vnto me, This is the table that shalbe before the Lord.

And the Temple and the Sanctuarie had two doores.

And the doores had two wickets, euen two turning wickets, two wickets for one doore, and two wickets for another doore.

And vpon the doores of the Temple there were made Cherubims and palmetrees, like as was made vpon the walles, and there were thicke plankes vpon the forefront of the porch without.

And there were narow windowes and palme trees on the one side, and on the other side, by the sides of the porch, and vpon ye sides of the house, and thicke plankes.

Then brought hee me into the vtter court by the way towarde the North, and he brought me into the chamber that was ouer against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the North.

Before ye length of an hundreth cubites, was the North doore, and it was fiftie cubites broad.

Ouer against the twentie cubites which were for the inner court, and ouer against the pauement, which was for the vtter court, was chamber against chamber in three rowes.

And before the chambers was a gallery of ten cubites wide, and within was a way of one cubite, and their doores towarde the North.

Nowe the chambers aboue were narower: for those chambers seemed to eate vp these, to wit, the lower, and those that were in the middes of the building.

For they were in three rowes, but had not pillars as the pillars of the court: therefore there was a difference from them beneath and from the middlemost, euen from the ground.

And the wall that was without ouer against the chambers, toward the vtter court on the forefront of the chambers, was fiftie cubites long.

For the length of the chambers that were in the vtter court, was fiftie cubites: and loe, before the Temple were an hundreth cubites.
