Structure

Third temple floor sketch based on Rabbi Meir Leibush ben Yehiel Michal's commentary to the Hebrew text of Ezekiel

NKJV groups this chapter into:

Verse 1

Then he brought me into the sanctuary and measured the doorposts,
six cubits wide on one side and six cubits wide on the other side—the width of the tabernacle. (NKJV)[2]
  • The vision was given on the 25th anniversary of Ezekiel's exile, "April 28, 573 BCE".[3]
  • "Sanctuary" (Hebrew היכל heykalH): here "the main room of the temple", sometimes called the "holy place" (compare Exodus 26:33)[4]

Verse 4

He measured the length, twenty cubits; and the width, twenty cubits, beyond the sanctuary;
and he said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.” (NKJV)[5]
