Ezekiel 41:1 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

EZEKIEL CHAPTER 41 The measures, parts, chambers, and ornaments of the temple. After the measuring of the courts, &c., now the prophet is brought to see the temple itself measured. The posts; the thickness of the walls (called posts here, as also Ezekiel 40:48) on the north side and on the south side of the gate. Six cubits broad; one whole reed in thickness. These walls in their thickness took up as much space as the whole breadth of Moses's tabernacle, Exodus 26:22-25, where eight boards, each one cubit and half broad, make just the breadth of the tabernacle, twelve cubits. No text from Poole on this verse.

Ezekiel 41:1

1 Afterward he brought me to the temple, and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the tabernacle.
