Ezekiel 42:4 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

This row of chambers had on the south side, or inward, a walk of ten cubits broad, which my between the wall on which these chambers were built, and the twenty cubits space; possibly it might be some cloister, running along the wall on the inside. Before the galleries, probably, was a ledge of one cubit broad, running the whole length from east to west, called here a way, though not designed for any to walk on it: such ledges we see in many great houses. Every chamber door opened to the north; and so the entrance into these chambers was through the gallery, which looked to the pavement of the outer court.

Ezekiel 42:4

4 And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
