Ezechiele 42:11

11 e, davanti a queste, c’era un corridoio come quello delle camere di settentrione; la loro lunghezza e la loro larghezza erano come la lunghezza e la larghezza di quelle, e così tutte le loro uscite, le loro disposizioni e le loro porte.

Ezechiele 42:11 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 42:11

And the way before them was like the appearance of the
chambers which were toward the north
The way before these eastern chambers was exactly like to that of the northern chambers; which was either the way of one cubit into them, or the walk of ten cubits before them, or both; signifying that the way into Gospel churches is the same everywhere, and the walk and conversation of the saints the same in all places: as long as they, and as broad as they;
which seems to confirm that both the way and the walk are meant, which were the same in those eastern chambers as in the northern; the way being as long, of one cubit, and the walk as broad, of ten cubits: and all their goings out were both according to their fashions, and
according to their doors;
the form and fashion of them were alike; they were built three stories high, were as long, and as broad, and the upper shorter than the middlemost and lowest; the way of going into them, and coming out of them, were just the same; their doors were in the same position: in Gospel churches there are the same ordinances of baptism and the Lord's supper; the same laws and rules; the same privileges and immunities; the same graces in the members of them, like precious faith, hope, and love; whatever difference there may be in temporal things, there is none in spiritual ones; be they rich or poor, their communion is equal, their benefits the same.

Ezechiele 42:11 In-Context

9 In basso a queste camere c’era un ingresso dal lato d’oriente per chi v’entrava dal cortile esterno.

10 Nella larghezza del muro del cortile, in direzione d’oriente, difaccia allo spazio vuoto e difaccia all’edifizio, c’erano delle camere;

11 e, davanti a queste, c’era un corridoio come quello delle camere di settentrione; la loro lunghezza e la loro larghezza erano come la lunghezza e la larghezza di quelle, e così tutte le loro uscite, le loro disposizioni e le loro porte.

12 Così erano anche le porte delle camere di mezzogiorno; c’erano parimenti una porta in capo al corridoio: al corridoio che si trovava proprio davanti al muro, dal lato d’oriente di chi v’entrava.

13 Ed egli mi disse: "Le camere di settentrione e le camere di mezzogiorno che stanno difaccia allo spazio vuoto, sono le camere sante, dove i sacerdoti che s’accostano all’Eterno mangeranno le cose santissime; quivi deporranno le cose santissime, le oblazioni e le vittime per il peccato e per la colpa; poiché quel luogo è santo.
