11 Y el corredor que había delante de ellas era semejante al de las cámaras que estaban hacia el norte, conforme á su longitud, asimismo su anchura, y todas sus salidas; conforme á sus puertas, y conforme á sus entradas.

Ezequiel 42:11 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 42:11

And the way before them was like the appearance of the
chambers which were toward the north
The way before these eastern chambers was exactly like to that of the northern chambers; which was either the way of one cubit into them, or the walk of ten cubits before them, or both; signifying that the way into Gospel churches is the same everywhere, and the walk and conversation of the saints the same in all places: as long as they, and as broad as they;
which seems to confirm that both the way and the walk are meant, which were the same in those eastern chambers as in the northern; the way being as long, of one cubit, and the walk as broad, of ten cubits: and all their goings out were both according to their fashions, and
according to their doors;
the form and fashion of them were alike; they were built three stories high, were as long, and as broad, and the upper shorter than the middlemost and lowest; the way of going into them, and coming out of them, were just the same; their doors were in the same position: in Gospel churches there are the same ordinances of baptism and the Lord's supper; the same laws and rules; the same privileges and immunities; the same graces in the members of them, like precious faith, hope, and love; whatever difference there may be in temporal things, there is none in spiritual ones; be they rich or poor, their communion is equal, their benefits the same.

Ezequiel 42:11 In-Context

9 Y debajo de las cámaras estaba la entrada al lado oriental, para entrar en él desde el atrio de afuera.
10 A lo largo del muro del atrio hacia el oriente, enfrente de la lonja, y delante del edificio, había cámaras.
11 Y el corredor que había delante de ellas era semejante al de las cámaras que estaban hacia el norte, conforme á su longitud, asimismo su anchura, y todas sus salidas; conforme á sus puertas, y conforme á sus entradas.
12 Y conforme á las puertas de las cámaras que estaban hacia el mediodía, tenía una puerta al principio del camino, del camino delante del muro hacia el oriente á los que entran.
13 Y díjome: Las cámaras del norte y las del mediodía, que están delante de la lonja, son cámaras santas, en las cuales los sacerdotes que se acercan á Jehová comerán las santas ofrendas: allí pondrán las ofrendas santas, y el presente, y la expiación, y el sacrificio por el pecado: porque el lugar es santo.
