Eze 42:2

Eze 42:2before the length of the hundred cubits: the entry was on the north, and the breadth was fifty cubits,

Eze 42:3over against the twenty cubits that pertained to the inner court, and over against the pavement that pertained to the outer court; there was gallery against gallery in the third story;

Eze 42:5

Eze 42:5And the upper cells, because the galleries encroached on them, were shorter than the lower, and than the middle-most of the building.

Eze 42:6

Eze 42:6For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts; therefore the third story was straitened more than the lowest and the middle-most from the ground.

Eze 42:7

Eze 42:7And the wall that was without, answering to the cells, toward the outer court in the front of the cells, its length was fifty cubits:

Eze 42:10

Eze 42:10In the breadth of the wall of the court toward the south, before the separate place, and before the building, were cells;

Eze 42:11

Eze 42:11and a passage before them, like the appearance of the cells that were toward the north, according to their length, according to their breadth and all their goings out, and according to their fashions, and according to their doors.

Eze 42:12

Eze 42:12And according to the doors of the cells that were toward the south there was a door at the head of the way, the way directly before the corresponding wall toward the east as one entereth into them.

Eze 42:13

Eze 42:13And he said unto me, The north cells and the south cells, which are before the separate place, they are holy cells, where the priests that come near unto Jehovah shall eat the most holy things; there shall they lay the most holy things, both the oblation and the sin-offering and the trespass-offering: for the place is holy.

Eze 42:14

Eze 42:14When the priests enter in, they shall not go forth from the sanctuary into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister, for they are holy; and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which is for the people.

Eze 42:15

Eze 42:17

Eze 42:17He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed round about.

Eze 42:18

Eze 42:18He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed.

Eze 42:19

Eze 42:19He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring-reed.

Eze 42:20

Eze 42:20He measured it on the four sides; it had a wall round about, five hundred long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
