Overagainst the twentycubitswhichwere for the innercourt, and overagainst the pavementwhich was for the uttercourt, was galleryagainstgallery in threestories.
For theywere in threestories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitenedmorethan the lowest and the middlemostfrom the ground.
And the way beforethem was like the appearance of the chamberswhichweretoward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all theirgoings out werebothaccording to theirfashions, and according to theirdoors.
And according to the doors of the chambersthatweretoward the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way directlybefore the walltoward the east, as one enterethintothem.
Thensaid he unto me, The northchambers and the southchambers, which are before the separateplace, they be holychambers, where the prieststhatapproachunto the LORDshall eat the mostholythings: thereshallthey lay the mostholythings, and the meatoffering, and the sin offering, and the trespassoffering; for the place is holy.
When the priestsentertherein, thenshallthey not go out of the holyplaceinto the uttercourt, but theretheyshall lay theirgarmentswhereintheyminister; for they are holy; and shall put on othergarments, and shallapproach to thosethingswhich are for the people.
Now when he had made an end of measuring the innerhouse, he brought me forthtoward the gatewhoseprospect is toward the east, and measured it roundabout.
He measured it by the foursides: it had a wallroundabout, fivehundredreedslong, and fivehundredbroad, to make a separationbetween the sanctuary and the profaneplace.
