Ezekiel 42:10 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 42:10

The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court
toward the east
As there were chambers in the northern part of the outward court, some which looked to the north, and others to the south, so likewise some to the east; and these were built on the breadth, as it may be rendered, of the court wall to the east; signifying there will be churches raised in all the northern parts of the world: over against the separate place, and over against the building;
as the other chambers were; (See Gill on Ezekiel 42:1).

Ezekiel 42:10 In-Context

8 For the chambers on the outer court were fifty cubits long, while those facing the temple were a hundred cubits long.

9 And below these chambers was the entrance on the east side as one enters them from the outer court.

10 On the south side along the length of the wall of the outer court were chambers adjoining the courtyard and opposite the building,

11 with a passageway in front of them, just like the chambers that were on the north. They had the same length and width, with similar exits and dimensions.

12 And corresponding to the doors of the chambers that were facing south, there was a door in front of the walkway that was parallel to the wall extending eastward.
