2 They were a hundred cubits long on the north side and fifty cubits wide.
3 Built in rows at three different levels, they stood between the twenty cubits of the inner court and the pavement of the outer court.
4 In front of the chambers was a walkway ten cubits wide on the inside of a wall one cubit wide. The doorways faced north.
5 The upper chambers were shorter because they lost space to the lower and middle tiers of the building.
6 Because they were in three tiers, they did not have foundations like the court, but were set back from the lower and middle levels from the ground up.
7 The outside walls ran parallel to the chambers along the outer court, a length of fifty cubits.
8 The chambers facing the outer court were fifty cubits long; thus the wall along the nave was a hundred cubits.
