Footnotes

  1. Ezekiel 40:48 Feature K on the diagram. The Hebrew text consistently calls the temple ha-bayit, the House. To avoid confusion, in this account the EHV regularly translates this term temple, rather than house, and it distinguishes the temple building from the temple complex or temple compound when necessary.
  2. Ezekiel 40:48 About 9 feet
  3. Ezekiel 40:48 About 25 feet
  4. Ezekiel 40:48 About 5 feet
  5. Ezekiel 40:48 The words in half-brackets are present in the Greek text but not in the Hebrew text. An omission from the Hebrew text may have occurred as the Hebrew scribe’s eye skipped from one occurrence of gate to another.
  6. Ezekiel 40:49 About 35 feet by 20 feet
  7. Ezekiel 40:49 The number ten is present in the Greek text. The Hebrew text has no number.
