Ezekiel 40:5-16 - The Eastern Gate

⁵ And there was a wall on [the] outside of the temple {all the way around it}, and in the hand of the man the reed for measurement [was] six [long] cubits, {according to} the cubit and a handbreadth, and he measured the width of the outer wall [as] one reed, and [the] height [as] one reed. ⁶ And [then] he went toward [the] gate whose face [was] {to the east}. And he went up by its steps, and he measured the threshold of the gate, one reed wide. ⁷ And the alcove [was] one reed long and one reed wide, and between the alcoves [was] five cubits, and the threshold of the gate along the side of the portico of the gate {on the inside} [was] one reed. ⁸ And [then] he measured the portico of the gate {on the inside} [as] one reed. ⁹ And he measured the portico of the gate [as] eight cubits, and its pilaster [was] two cubits [thick], and [he measured] the portico of the gate {on the inside}.

¹⁰ And the alcoves of the gate [toward] the way {eastward} [were] {three on each side}; {the same measurements applied to all three of them}; and {the same measurement applied to the pilaster} {on each side}. ¹¹ And he measured the width of the doorway of the gate [as] ten cubits and the length of the gateway [was] thirteen cubits. ¹² And a wall {was before} the alcoves; {one cubit on either side} [was the] wall from here. And the alcove {was six cubits on each side}. ¹³ And he measured the gate from the top slab of the alcove to its [opposite] top slab [as] twenty-five cubits [in] width, {from one entrance to the other one opposite it}. ¹⁴ And he made [the] pilasters sixty cubits, and to the pilaster of the courtyard {all the way around the gate}. ¹⁵ {And from the front of} the gate [at] the entrance to {the front of} the portico of the inner gate [was] fifty cubits. ¹⁶ And [there were] narrow windows for the alcoves and for their pilasters to [the] inside of the gate {all the way around} [it]. And likewise [with respect] to the porticos and windows [were] {all the way around} to the inside, and on a pilaster [there were] images [of] palm trees.
