Ezekiel 40:28-38

28 He led me into the inside courtyard through the south gate complex. He measured it and found it the same as the outside ones.
29 Its alcoves, connecting walls, and vestibule were the same. The gate complex and porch, windowed all around, measured eighty-seven and a half by forty-three and three-quarters feet.
30 The vestibule of each of the gate complexes leading to the inside courtyard was forty-three and three-quarters by eight and three-quarters feet.
31 Each vestibule faced the outside courtyard. Palm trees were carved on its doorposts. Eight steps led up to it.
32 He then took me to the inside courtyard on the east and measured the gate complex. It was identical to the others -
33 alcoves, connecting walls, and vestibule all the same. The gate complex and vestibule had windows all around. It measured eighty-seven and a half by forty-three and three-quarters feet.
34 Its porch faced the outside courtyard. There were palm trees on the doorposts on both sides. And it had eight steps.
35 He brought me to the gate complex to the north and measured it: same measurements.
36 The alcoves, connecting walls, and vestibule with its windows: eighty-seven and a half by forty-three and three-quarters feet.
37 Its porch faced the outside courtyard. There were palm trees on its doorposts on both sides. And it had eight steps.
38 There was a room with a door at the vestibule of the gate complex where the burnt offerings were cleaned.
