Ezekiel 40:46 in context

  1. 44Outside of the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate. They faced toward the south. One at the side of the east gate faced toward the north.
  2. 45He said to me, “This room, which faces toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the house.
  3. 46The room which faces toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to Yahweh to minister to him.”
  4. 47He measured the court, one hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits wide, square. The altar was before the house.
  5. 48Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side. The width of the gate was three cubits on this side and three cubits on that side.
