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).

11 And the way before them was like the chambers which were toward the north: they were as long as they, and as broad as they: and all the going in to them, and their fashions, and their doors were alike.
12 According to the doors of the chambers that were towards the south: there was a door in the head of the way, which way was before the porch, separated towards the east as one entereth in.
