Ezekiel 41:7 in other translations
And the side-chambers were broader as they encompassed the house higher and higher; for the encompassing of the house went higher and higher round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house continued upward; and so one went up from the lowest chamber to the highest by the middle chamber.
Ezekiel 41:7 in context
- 5Then he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the width of every side room, four cubits, all around the house on every side.
- 6The side rooms were in three stories, one over another, and thirty in order. They entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side rooms all around, that they might be supported, and not penetrate the wall of the house.
- 7The side rooms were wider on the higher levels, because the walls were narrower at the higher levels. Therefore the width of the house increased upward; and so one went up from the lowest level to the highest through the middle level.
- 8I saw also that the house had a raised base all around. The foundations of the side rooms were a full reed of six great cubits.
- 9The thickness of the wall, which was for the side rooms, on the outside, was five cubits. That which was left was the place of the side rooms that belonged to the house.
