from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
was five: Ezekiel 41:5
that which: This appears to have been a walk, or gallery of communication between the chambers, five cubits broad, into which the doors opened. Ezekiel 41:11, Ezekiel 42:1, Ezekiel 42:4
Gill's Notes on the Bible
The thickness of the wall, which was for the side chambers without, was five cubits,.... This is the outward wall of the chambers, north and south, which was five cubits thick, made of stone;
:-,
and that which was left was the place of the side chambers that were within; this was a void space, not built upon, which was before the chambers that stood within it; and was a space to walk in for those that dwelt in the chambers, or to go in from chamber to chamber; which also was five cubits in breadth, as appears from the next verse. This may denote the communion of churches, and the members of them one with another.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And that which was left - i. e., the passage (F) between the side-chambers and the temple-wall, was five cubits Ezekiel 41:11.
The place of the side chambers that were within - Within the side-chambers which belong to the house. The seer is giving first the height of the side-chambers Ezekiel 41:8, and then the breadth, from the outside of the wall of these chambers to the temple-wall.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 41:9. The thickness of the wall — See LLL in the plan. Ezekiel 48:35.
The place of the side chambers — A walk, or gallery of communication along the chambers, five cubits broad, Ezekiel 41:11.
