Outside Dimensions of the Temple Complex
15 When he finished measuring inside the temple complex, he led me out by way of the gate that faced east and measured all around the complex.(A)

it was 875 feet[d] by the measuring rod.[e]

it was 875 feet[g] by the measuring rod.[h]

and measured 875 feet[i] by the measuring rod.[j]

15 When he had finished measuring what was inside the temple area, he led me out by the east gate(A) and measured the area all around: 16 He measured the east side with the measuring rod; it was five hundred cubits.[a][b] 17 He measured the north side; it was five hundred cubits[c] by the measuring rod. 18 He measured the south side; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod. 19 Then he turned to the west side and measured; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod. 20 So he measured(B) the area(C) on all four sides. It had a wall around it,(D) five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits wide,(E) to separate the holy from the common.(F)
