Ezequiel 42:2

Listen to Ezequiel 42:2
2 A lo largo de la longitud, que era de cien codos, estaba la puerta del norte; la anchura era de cincuenta codos.

Ezequiel 42:2 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 42:2

Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door
That is, the north door of the house opened to a space that lay between that and the chambers, which was a hundred cubits long: and the breadth was fifty cubits;
or the sense is, that the prophet was brought, as Noldius renders the words F20, to a place whose length was an hundred cubits towards the north door;
so that they describe the length and breadth of these chambers, the whole of them; and to this agrees the Arabic version: this account of them makes them larger than Solomon's temple, ( 1 Kings 6:2 ) , which may signify the largeness of these churches; the number of men in them; and the abundance of spiritual blessings and privileges, of light and knowledge, peace and joy, possessed by them: but the measure being oblong, and not foursquare, as the city of the New Jerusalem, ( Revelation 21:16 ) , shows they are not yet come to stability and perfection.

Ezequiel 42:2 In-Context

1 Luego me sacó al atrio exterior, hacia el norte, y me llevó a la cámara que estaba frente a la zona separada y frente al edificio hacia el norte.
2 A lo largo de la longitud, que era de cien codos, estaba la puerta del norte; la anchura era de cincuenta codos.
3 Frente a los veinte codos del atrio interior, y frente al pavimento del atrio exterior, habĂ­a una galerĂ­a frente a la otra galerĂ­a en los tres pisos.
4 Y delante de las cámaras había un corredor interior de diez codos de ancho, una vía de cien codos; y sus entradas daban al norte.
5 Las cámaras superiores eran más estrechas porque las galerías les quitaban más espacio que a las inferiores y a las intermedias del edificio.
