Ezequiel 41:3 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 41:3

Then went he inward
Through the temple or holy place he had measured, to the holy of holies: and measured the post of the door two cubits;
this was the door into the most holy place; there was one in Solomon's temple; but in the second temple there was none; but two rails instead of it, which were rent at the death of Christ; and two cubits was the thickness of the post, on which this door was shut: and the door six cubits, and the breadth of the door seven cubits;
this door was a two leaved one; each leaf consisted of three cubits broad, and the post in the middle on which they shut one cubit broad, which made seven: though some think that the side walls of the door are meant, as in ( Ezekiel 41:2 ) , which were each seven cubits; and the breadth of the door, six cubits, made twenty cubits; which was the breadth of the most holy place, as answering to the breadth of the holy place, as in the next verse.

Ezequiel 41:3 In-Context

1 Então me levou ao templo, e mediu as umbreiras, seis côvados de largura de uma banda, e seis côvados de largura da outra, que era a largura do tabernáculo.
2 E a largura da entrada era de dez côvados; e os lados da entrada, cinco côvados de uma banda e cinco côvados da outra; também mediu o seu comprimento, de quarenta côvados, e a largura, de vinte côvados.
3 E entrou dentro, e mediu cada umbral da entrada, dois côvados; e a entrada, seis côvados; e a largura da entrada, sete côvados.
4 Também mediu o seu comprimento, vinte côvados, e a largura, vinte côvados, diante do templo; e disse-me: Este é o lugar santíssimo.
5 Então mediu a parede do templo, seis côvados, e a largura de cada câmara lateral, quatro côvados, por todo o redor do templo.
