And he measured [e]the length of the nave, [f](D)forty cubits, and the width, (E)twenty cubits.

41 Then he brought me to the nave, and measured the jambs; on each side six cubits was the breadth of the jambs.[a] 2 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 forty cubits, and its breadth, twenty cubits. 3 Then he went into the inner room and measured the jambs of the entrance, two cubits; and the breadth of the entrance, six cubits; and the sidewalls[b] of the entrance, seven cubits. 4 And he measured the length of the room, twenty cubits, and its breadth, twenty cubits, beyond the nave. And he said to me, “This is the most holy place.”
