5 Now there was an outer wall that went all the way around the temple compound. The measuring rod in the man’s hand was ten and a half feet (based on a standard eighteen inches plus three inches). When he measured the wall’s height and width it was ten and a half feet high and ten and a half feet wide.
6 He entered the gate facing east. He went up its steps, and he measured the plaza at the gate. It was ten and a half feet wide: the plaza was ten and a half feet wide.
7 The rooms were ten and a half feet long and ten and a half feet wide, with a space of seven and a half feet between them. The plaza next to the porch at the gate opposite the temple was ten and a half feet.
8 He measured the porch of the gate opposite the temple: it was ten and a half feet.
9 Then he measured the porch of the gate: it was twelve feet, and its arches were three feet. The porch of the gate was opposite the temple.
10 Inside the east gate, there were three rooms on each side. Each was the same size, and the arches on each side were the same size also.
