Ezekiel 41:15-26

Common English Bible

¹⁵ Then he measured the length of the structure along the side of the yard, including its promenades on both sides: one hundred fifty feet.

Now the interior of the main hall as well as the porches in the courtyard ¹⁶ were paneled all around, including the ceilings,^[a] closed windows, and its three courses of promenades that adjoined the ceiling. From the ground up to the windows was covered. ¹⁷ Above the entrance, from the interior to the exterior of the temple, and on every interior and exterior wall, ¹⁸ there were carved winged creatures and palm trees. The palm trees were positioned between the winged creatures, and each winged creature had two faces. ¹⁹ A human face turned toward one palm tree, and the face of a lion turned toward another. They were carved on the temple all the way around. ²⁰ From the ground to above the entrance, the walls of the main hall were carved with winged creatures and palm trees. ²¹ In the main hall itself, there were square doorposts in front of the holy place, where there was the appearance of ²² the altar. It was four and a half feet high and three feet wide. It was made of wood, and its corners, base, and sides were also wood. He said to me, “This is the table that stands before the Lord.”

²³ The main hall and the holy place each had two doors, ²⁴ and each door had two turning panels, two for one door and two for the other. ²⁵ Like the walls, the doors of the main hall were carved with winged creatures and palm trees. A single luxuriant^[b] tree stood outside, in front of the porch, ²⁶ while closed windows and palm trees decorated both sides of the facade of the porch, the temple’s side chambers, and the beams.
