15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about.
15 When he had finished measuring what was inside the temple area, he led me out by the east gate and measured the area all around:
15 Now when he had finished measuring the interior of the temple area, he led me out by the gate that faced east, and measured the temple area all around.
15 After he had finished measuring what was inside the Temple area, he took me out the east gate and measured it from the outside.
15 Now when he had finished measuring the inner temple, he brought me out through the gateway that faces toward the east, and measured it all around.
15 When the man had finished measuring the inside of the Temple area, he led me out through the east gateway to measure the entire perimeter.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 42:15
Chapter Summary
In this chapter are described the priests' chambers, their use, and the dimensions of the holy mount on which the temple stood. These chambers were many. Jesus said, In my Father's house are many mansions: in his house on earth there are many; multitudes, by faith, are lodging in his sanctuary, and yet there is room. These chambers, though private, were near the temple. Our religious services in our chambers, must prepare for public devotions, and further us in improving them, as our opportunities are.
