Ezekiel 40:4-6
New King James Version
4 And the man said to me, (A)“Son of man, look with your eyes and hear with your ears, and [a]fix your mind on everything I show you; for you were brought here so that I might show them to you. (B)Declare to the house of Israel everything you see.” 5 Now there was (C)a wall all around the outside of the [b]temple. In the man’s hand was a measuring rod six [c]cubits long, each being a cubit and a handbreadth; and he measured the width of the wall structure, one rod; and the height, one rod.
The Eastern Gateway of the Temple
6 Then he went to the gateway which faced (D)east; and he went up its stairs and measured the threshold of the gateway, which was one rod wide, and the other threshold was one rod wide.
