14 When the Kohanim enter therein, then shall they not go out of the Kodesh into the khatzer hakhitzonah, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are kodesh; and shall put on begadim acherim (other garments); then shall they approach the precinct of the people.
15 Now when he [the angelic being] had made an end of measuring the Beis HaPenimi, he brought me forth toward the sha'ar whose view is toward the east, and measured it all around.
16 He measured the eastern side with the measuring rod, five hundred rods, with the keneh hamiddah (measuring rod) all around.
17 He measured the northern side, five hundred rods, with the keneh hamiddah all around.
18 He measured the southern side, five hundred rods, with the keneh hamiddah.
19 He turned about to the western side, and measured five hundred rods with the keneh hamiddah.
20 He measured it by the four sides; it had a wall all around, five hundred rods long, and five hundred wide, lehavdil (to make a separation) between the Kodesh (Holy Precinct, area) and the Chol (Common Precinct, area).
