'Facing' in the Bible

And [the] Spirit lifted me up, and it brought me to the eastern gate, the one facing east, of the temple of Yahweh. And look, there were twenty-five men in the doorway of the gate, and I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azzur in the midst of them, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, the commanders of the people.

And he brought me to the outer courtyard, and there were chambers and a pavement made for the courtyard all around [it], [and] thirty chambers [were facing] to the pavement.

And its windows and its porticos and its palm tree images [were] like the measurement of the gate that [was] {facing toward the east}; and {it had} seven steps that go up it, and [there were] porticos {before them}.

And on the outside of the inner gate, [there were] chambers for singers in the inner courtyard, which [was] to the side of the north gate, and their faces {were to the south} [with respect to one], [and] on the side of the east gate [one] facing to the north.

And he measured the length of the building {facing the courtyard} {at the rear} and its galleries, {a hundred cubits on each side}, and [also] the temple, the court, and the porticos of the courtyard,

Opposite the twenty [cubits] {of the inner courtyard}, and opposite [the] pavement that [was] to the outer courtyard [was] a gallery {facing} a gallery in the three [stories].

And he brought me to the gate which [was] {facing east}.

And [then] the glory of Yahweh came to the temple {by the way of the gate facing east}.

And the ledge [was] {fourteen} [cubits] in length with {fourteen} [cubits] [its] width to [all] four of its sides, and a rim [was] all around it of one-half cubit. And the gutter for it [was] a cubit all around, and its steps [were] facing east."

And he brought me back [by] the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary that [is] facing east, and it was shut.

Thus says the Lord Yahweh: "The gate of the inner courtyard facing east must be shut [on] the six of the days for work, but on the day of the Sabbath it must be opened and on the day of the new moon it must be opened.

And when the prince makes a freewill offering, a burnt offering, or a fellowship offering [as] a freewill offering to Yahweh, the gate facing east will be open for him. And he must offer his burnt offering and his fellowship offering {just as} he does on the day of the Sabbath, and [then] he must go out and the gate will shut {after he goes out}.

Then he brought me through the entrance which [was] on the side of the gate {to the holy chambers} to the priests; [the chambers] were facing northwards and, look, there [was] a place at the extreme end westwards.

And he brought me out [by the way] of [the] north gate and he led me around [by the] {way leading to the outside of the outer gate} [by] way of the [gate] facing east, and look, there was water trickling from the south side.
