Yechezkel 40:13 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 40:13

He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber
to the roof of another
That is, the whole porch, from the extreme part of the roof of one of the little chambers on the north side, to the extreme part of the roof of another of the little chambers on the south; of the roof of these chambers, and the spiritual meaning of it, (See Gill on Ezekiel 40:7): the breadth was five and twenty cubits;
reckoning six cubits to one chamber on one side, and six to one chamber on the other side, which make twelve; and a cubit and a half to each back wall of the chambers on the north and south; or two cubits to the spaces before the chambers, and a cubit and a half to each of the caves of the chambers, which either way make fifteen cubits; and ten cubits the breadth of the gate; in all five and twenty cubits; or fourteen yards and three inches: door against door;
not the door of the outward gate against the door of the inward gate; nor the door of one of the little chambers at the east, to the door of another at the west, running lengthways, and so affording a sight quite through the temple; but the door of one of them on the north side over against the door of another on the south, they answering exactly to each other; which still more confirms the similarity and equality of Gospel churches; (See Gill on Ezekiel 40:7).

Yechezkel 40:13 In-Context

11 And he measured the width of the petach (opening) of the sha’ar, ten cubits; and the length of the sha’ar, thirteen cubits.
12 The boundary line also before the ta’ot (recesses) was one cubit on this side, one cubit on that side; and the ta were six cubits deep on this side, and six cubits on that side.
13 He [the angelic being] measured then the sha’ar from the ceiling of one ta to the ceiling of another; the width was five and twenty cubits; petach [opening of the recess] was opposite to petach.
14 He [the angelic being] made [measurement] of the ulam, threescore cubits, even unto the jamb of the khatzer at the sha’ar all around.
15 And from the front of the sha’ar, the outer side, unto the front of the interior ulam vestibule was fifty cubits.
