Ezekiel 40:11 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 40:11

And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten
cubits
Five yards, two feet and a half: this was the measure of the eastern gate, whether outward or inward; for they were both of a measure, as appears from the thresholds being alike: and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
that is, the height of it; it was seven yards and three inches high; a prodigious gate this! a fit emblem of our Lord Jesus Christ, as the open door, the gate of life, through which whoever enters shall be saved; and there is room for multitudes to enter.

Ezekiel 40:11 In-Context

9 Then he measured the porch of the gate: it was twelve feet, and its arches were three feet. The porch of the gate was opposite the temple.

10 Inside the East Gate, there were three rooms on each side. Each was the same size, and the arches on each side were the same size also.

11 Then he measured the width of the gate opening, which was fifteen feet, and the gate's length, which was nineteen and a half feet.

12 A border running along the front of the rooms on each side was eighteen inches wide, and each of the rooms was nine feet square.

13 He measured the gate through the room openings that faced each other. From the outer ceiling edge of one room to the outer ceiling edge of the other, the gate was thirty-seven and a half feet wide.
