Ezekiel 43:1

Afterward he brought me to the gate
The dimensions of this wonderful building being finished, the prophet's divine guide brought him from the wall about it, he had last measured, to the gate he first had him to, after he had observed to him the same wall, ( Ezekiel 40:5 Ezekiel 40:6 ) : even the gate that looketh toward the east;
or, as the Targum, which was open to the way of the east. The reason of his being brought hither follows.
