14
When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy [place] into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments in which they minister; for they [are] holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to [those things] which [are] for the people.

17
He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed around.
18
He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
19
He turned about to the west side, [and] measured five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.

He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall around, five hundred [reeds] long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
