The Boiling Places

Eze 46:19

Eze 46:19Then he brought me through the entrance, which was at the side of the gate, to the north row of the holy chambers for the priests; and there I saw a place at the extreme western end of them.

Eze 46:20

Eze 46:20And he said to me, "This is the place where the priests shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the cereal offering, in order not to bring them out into the outer court and so communicate holiness to the people."

Eze 46:21

Eze 46:21Then he brought me forth to the outer court, and led me to the four corners of the court; and in each corner of the court there was a court--

Eze 46:22

Eze 46:22in the four corners of the court were small courts, forty cubits long and thirty broad; the four were of the same size.

Eze 46:23

Eze 46:23On the inside, around each of the four courts was a row of masonry, with hearths made at the bottom of the rows round about.

Eze 46:24

Eze 46:24Then he said to me, "These are the kitchens where those who minister at the temple shall boil the sacrifices of the people."
