²⁰ Then he measured the gate of the outer court that faced north—its depth and width. ²¹ Its recesses, three on either side, and its posts and its vestibule were of the same size as those of the first gate; its depth was fifty cubits and its width twenty-five cubits.^{(A) 22} Its windows, its vestibule, and its palm trees were of the same size as those of the gate that faced toward the east. Seven steps led up to it, and its vestibule was on the inside.^{[a](B) 23} Opposite the gate on the north, as on the east, was a gate to the inner court; he measured from gate to gate, one hundred cubits.^(C)

²⁴ Then he led me toward the south, and there was a gate on the south, and he measured its posts and its vestibule; they had the same dimensions as the others.^{(D) 25} There were windows all around in it and in its vestibule, like the windows of the others; its depth was fifty cubits and its width twenty-five cubits.^{(E) 26} There were seven steps leading up to it; its vestibule was on the inside.^[b] It had palm trees on its posts, one on either side.^{(F) 27} There was a gate on the south of the inner court, and he measured from gate to gate toward the south, one hundred cubits.^(G)
