Ezekiel 41:10

10 And betwixt (the) chambers I saw the breadth of twenty cubits in the compass of the house (of the Lord) on each side; (And there was an open space, the breadth of twenty cubits, all around the Temple on every side.)

Ezekiel 41:10 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 41:10

And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits,
&c.] Not the side chambers before mentioned, as if there was the space of twenty cubits between each chamber; for another word is used; more probably the meaning is, that between the side chambers, or the void space before them of five cubits, and the chambers which were in the court facing them, was such a wideness of twenty cubits: round about the house on every side;
on all sides of the temple, where the above chambers were, west, north, and south.

Ezekiel 41:10 In-Context

8 And I saw in the house (of the Lord) an highness by compass, (and) the sides founded at the measure of a reed in the space of six cubits; (And I saw in the Temple a high place all around, and the foundations of the side chambers were the measure of a rod, that is, six cubits;)

9 and the breadth of the wall of the side withoutforth, of five cubits; and the inner house was in the sides of the house (of the Lord). (and the breadth of the wall of the side outside was five cubits; and an unused place was at the side of the Temple.)

10 And betwixt (the) chambers I saw the breadth of twenty cubits in the compass of the house (of the Lord) on each side; (And there was an open space, the breadth of twenty cubits, all around the Temple on every side.)

11 and I saw the door(s) of the side to prayer; one door to the way of the north, and one door to the way of the south; and I saw the breadth of (the) place to prayer, of five cubits in compass. (And the doors into the side chambers opened toward the unused place; one door faced north, and one door faced south; and the breadth of the unused place was five cubits all around.)

12 And the building that was joined to the place separated, and turned to the way beholding to the sea, (was) of the breadth of seventy cubits; soothly the wall of the building (was) of five cubits of breadth by compass, and the length thereof of ninety cubits. (And the building that was at the far end of the open space, and turned toward the west, was seventy cubits in breadth; the wall of the building was five cubits in breadth all around, and its length was ninety cubits.)
