Yehezkiel 40:6-7

40:6 Then he went to the gate facing east. He climbed its steps and measured the threshold of the gate as 10½ feet deep. ¹  40:7 The alcoves were 10½ feet long and 10½ feet wide; between the alcoves were 8¾ feet. ²  The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate facing inward was 10½ feet.

[40:6]  ¹ tn The Hebrew text adds “the one threshold 10½ feet deep.” This is probably an accidental duplication of what precedes. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:517.

[40:7]  ² tn Heb “five cubits” (i.e., 2.625 meters) according to the “long” cubit. See the note on the first occurrence of the phrase “10½ feet” in v. 5.
