The Inner Temple

41 Then he brought me to (A)the nave and measured the (B)jambs. On each side six cubits[a] was the breadth of the jambs.[b] And the breadth of the entrance was ten cubits, and the sidewalls of the entrance were five cubits on either side. And he measured the length of the nave,[c] (C)forty cubits, and its breadth, (D)twenty cubits. Then he went (E)into the inner room and measured the jambs of the entrance, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits; and the sidewalls on either side[d] of the entrance, seven cubits. And he measured (F)the length of the room, twenty cubits, and its breadth, twenty cubits, across (G)the nave. And he said to me, “This is (H)the Most Holy Place.”
