9 And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court.
9 Below these chambers was an entrance on the east side, as one enters them from the outer court.
9 The first-floor rooms had their entrance from the east, coming in from the outside courtyard.
9 At the lower chambers was the entrance on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
9 There was an eastern entrance from the outer courtyard to these rooms.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 42:9
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.
