There was a gate to the inner court over against the [other] gate, [both] on the north and on the east; and he measured from gate to gate one hundred cubits.

There was a gate to the inner court toward the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.

The arches of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

He brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures;

The arches of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the room that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.

Over against the twenty [cubits] which belonged to the inner court, and over against the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the third story.

The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, toward the outer court before the rooms, its length was fifty cubits.

For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits: and behold, before the temple were one hundred cubits.

From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.

Neither shall any of the priests drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.

In the day that he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, says the Lord Yahweh.
