- * To that.
- That is, the windows were placed above the height of the door,
- at the east end of the temple, and thus continued, at the same
- height, and at measured distances, along both sides of the
- holy place, to the wall of the inner sanctuary, in which there
- were no windows.

- * altar.
- This must signify the altar of incense; which, both in the
- tabernacle and Solomon's temple, was covered with plates of
- gold. It is very remarkable, that in this temple described by
- Ezekiel, there is not the least mention of gold or silver,
- though there was such a profusion of these metals in the
- former; which may probably imply, that a glory of a more
- spiritual nature was intended under these emblems.

- * chamber.
- This seems to denote a row of chambers in three stories; which
- appear to have been situated in the inner court, (here called
- the outer court in reference to the temple, ver. 13, 14,) just
- before the separate place, at the entrance from the north.
-
- # 4 41:9,12-15

- * Before.
- Perhaps this means, that the north door was 100 cubits from
- the entrance into the court; and that the door-way, or
- portico, was 50 cubits in length; or, that it faced one of the
- cloisters, the length of which was 100 cubits, and its breadth
- 50, which was the proportion of all the cloisters.
-

- belonging to the outer court.

- These seems to have been two rows of these chambers, and a

- from the chambers, of one cubit in width.

- Passing from the north to the south side of the temple (ver.

- was before the temple on the east, measured 100 cubits.

- # 40:6-16

- * side. Heb. wind. the measuring reed.
- Estimating the reed at 10½ feet, 500 reeds will be nearly
- equal to a mile; so that from this statement we find the
- temple, with its outbuildings, was built on a square, nearly
- an English mile on each side, and four miles in circumference.
- This not only far exceeds the size of Solomon's temple, or
- that after the captivity, which was only 500 cubits, or a
- furlong, on each side, and exactly half a mile in circuit; but
- is nearly equal to the whole extent of Jerusalem itself,
- which, when greatest, was but 33 furlongs in circumference,
- somewhat less than 4¼ miles. This seems clearly to intimate,
- that the vision cannot be explained of any temple that has
- hitherto been built, or indeed of any literal temple, but
- figuratively and mystically of the spiritual temple, the
- church under the gospel, and its spiritual glory.

- These settles were ledges by which the altar was narrowed

-
- Height Cubits
-

- To first ledge, ver. 14. . . . . . . 1

- In all 20
- Hence the upper part of the altar was only twelve cubits
- square (ver. 16,) the upper settle, or ledge, being in all
- fourteen cubits, (ver. 17,) deducting two cubits from its
- dimensions. Though this altar was the same in height, and
- breadth with that of Solomon, yet it differed materially from
- it in having settles or ledges; on which the priests walked
- round the altar, to officiate in offering sacrifices.
