Ezekiel 40:37 In-Context

35 Then he brought me to the north gate. When he measured [it], it had the same measurements as the others,
36 [as did] its recesses, pilasters, and portico. It also had windows all around. It was 87 and a half feet long and 43 and three-quarter feet wide.
37 Its portico faced the outer court, and its pilasters were decorated with palm trees on each side. Its stairway had eight steps.
38 There was a chamber whose door [opened] into the portico of the gate. The burnt offering was to be washed there.
39 Inside the portico of the gate there were two tables on each side, on which to slaughter the burnt offering, sin offering, and restitution offering.
