Its length was fifty cubits, and its breadth twenty-five cubits. 26 And there were seven steps leading up to it, and its vestibule was before them, and it had (C)palm trees on its jambs, one on either side. 27 And there was a gate on the south of (D)the inner court. And he measured from gate to gate toward the south, a hundred cubits.
