Ezekiel 41:3 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Then went he inward, &c,— There is scarcely any understanding this without the LXX. It is a description of the partition-wall and door between the Holy and the Holy of Holies, which, according to the LXX, was twenty cubits long, that is to say, the αιλ of the door (which must mean the thickness of the ports, or ends of the wall, to which the door was hung) two cubits; and the door six cubits (broad), and the shoulders, or sides of the door (that is to say, the spaces of wall on each side of the door,) were seven cubits on one side, and seven cubits on the other. Now these fourteen, with the six of the breadth of the door, do make twenty, which was the breadth of the house. See Wall's Critical Notes on the place.

Ezekiel 41:3
