Ezekiel 42:12

12 secundum ostia gazofilaciorum quae erant in via respiciente ad notum ostium in capite viae quae via erat ante vestibulum separatum per viam orientalem ingredientibus

Ezekiel 42:12 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 42:12

And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward
the south
That is, the doors of these eastern chambers were exactly like to the doors of the southern chambers, as well as to the northern ones: was a door in the head of the way;
or beginning of the way; the door opened into the way of one cubit, and that led into the walk of ten cubits; and such a way and walk were before these eastern chambers as were before the southern and northern ones: even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth
into them:
or, "also a way before the wall direct, a way to the east, as one goes into them" ^F2; which seems to describe such a way from under these eastern chambers as were from under the northern or southern chambers, ( Ezekiel 42:9 ) .

Ezekiel 42:12 In-Context

10 in latitudine periboli atrii quod erat contra viam orientalem in facie aedificii separati et erant ante aedificium gazofilacia

11 et via ante faciem eorum iuxta similitudinem gazofilaciorum quae erant in via aquilonis secundum longitudinem eorum sic et latitudo eorum et omnis introitus eorum et similitudines et ostia eorum

12 secundum ostia gazofilaciorum quae erant in via respiciente ad notum ostium in capite viae quae via erat ante vestibulum separatum per viam orientalem ingredientibus

13 et dixit ad me gazofilacia aquilonis et gazofilacia austri quae sunt ante aedificium separatum haec sunt gazofilacia sancta in quibus vescuntur sacerdotes qui adpropinquant ad Dominum in sancta sanctorum ibi ponent sancta sanctorum et oblationem pro peccato et pro delicto locus enim sanctus est

14 cum autem ingressi fuerint sacerdotes non egredientur de sanctis in atrium exterius et ibi reponent vestimenta sua in quibus ministrant quia sancta sunt vestienturque vestimentis aliis et sic procedent ad populum
