19 The man brought me through the entrance at the side of the north building. That's where the priests' sacred rooms were located. He showed me a place west of the building.
20 He said to me, "This is where the priests will cook the guilt offerings and sin offerings. They will also bake the grain offerings here. Then they will not have to bring the offerings into the outer courtyard. That will keep the people from touching the offerings and becoming holy."
21 Then the man brought me to the outer courtyard. He led me around to its four corners. In each corner I saw another smaller courtyard.
22 So in the four corners of the outer courtyard were walled courtyards. Each one was 70 feet long and 52 and a half feet wide. All of them were the same size.
23 Around the inside of each of the four courtyards was a stone ledge. Places for fire were built all around under each ledge.
