Die Breite der Tür betrug zehn Ellen, die Seitenwände der Tür waren auf beiden Seiten fünf Ellen breit. Er maß auch seine Länge: vierzig Ellen, und die Breite: zwanzig Ellen.
Und die Tür war zehn Ellen weit; aber die Wände zu beiden Seiten an der Tür waren jede fünf Ellen breit. Und er maß den Raum im Tempel; der hatte vierzig Ellen in die Länge und zwanzig Ellen in die Breite.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
the door: or, the entrance, This was the door out of the porch into the sanctuary, which seems to have been wider than that from the court to the porch. Exodus 26:36, Exodus 36:37, 1 Kings 6:31-35, 2 Chronicles 3:7, 2 Chronicles 29:7, John 10:7, John 10:9
the length: 1 Kings 6:2, 1 Kings 6:17, 2 Chronicles 3:3
Reciprocal: Ezekiel 41:3 - two cubits Ezekiel 42:15 - measuring Ezekiel 47:1 - the door
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the breadth of the door was ten cubits,.... The temple door: great care is taken to observe and give the dimensions of the doors and gates of various places; to put us in mind of Christ the door and gate into the church, and into fellowship with God: this was as broad again as the door of Solomon's temple; for that was but the fourth part of the wall of it, five cubits, 1 Kings 6:1:
and the sides of the door were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side; the side walls of the door, both on the north and south, were five cubits each; which, with the ten, the breadth of the door, made twenty; and is just the breadth of the temple or holy place afterwards given:
and he measured the length thereof forty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits; that is, the length of the temple from east to west, and the breadth of it from north to south, were of this measure; which exactly answers to the dimensions of Solomon's temple, a figure of the Gospel church, as this; see 1 Kings 6:2.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The measurements are internal, the same as in the Temple of Solomon.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 41:2. The breadth of the door — This was the door, or gate, of the sanctuary, (see gates, 3, in the plan,) Ezekiel 48:35, and this doorway was filled up with folding gates. The measurements are exactly the same as those of Solomon's temple. See 1 Kings 6:2; 1 Kings 6:17.
