¹⁴ Then measured he the porch, twenty cubits,––even unto the projection of the court, the lodges of the gate round about on every side;

²⁰ And, as for the gate which looked towards the north, pertaining to the outer court, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.

²³ And, the gate to the inner court, was over against the gate, to the north and to the east,––so he measured from gate to gate, one hundred cubits.

²⁸ Yea, when he brought me to the inner court through the south gate, then measured he the south gate, according to these measures;

³² And, when he brought me unto the inner court toward the east, then measured he the gate, according to these measures;

⁴⁴ And, on the outside of the inner gate, were the chambers of the singers, in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate, and, their front, was toward the south,––one, at the side of the south gate, fronting, toward the north.

And, this, shall be the upper part of the altar. ¹⁴ And, from the hollow of the ground unto the lower ledge, [shall be] two cubits, and, the breadth, one cubit,––and, from the smaller ledge unto the larger ledge, [shall be] four cubits, and, the breadth, a cubit. ¹⁵ And, the hearth, [shall, be] four cubits,––and, from the hearth and upward, the horns, [shall be] four. ¹⁶ And, the hearth, shall be twelve cubits in length, by, twelve, in breadth––square in the four sides thereof. ¹⁷ And, the ledge, shall be fourteen in length, by fourteen in breadth, unto the four sides thereof,––and, the boundary round about it, shall be half a cubit, and, the hollow thereto, a cubit, round about, with, the steps thereof, looking toward the east.

²⁰ Then said he unto me,––This, is the place where the priests, shall boil, the guilt–bearer, and the sin–bearer,––where they shall bake the meal–offering, that one may not carry them forth into the outer court, to hallow the people. ²¹ So he caused me to go out into the outer court, and then made me pass through into the four corners of the court,––and lo! a court, in each corner of the court: ²² in the four corners of the court, were courts covered over, forty long and thirty broad: of one measure, were those four. ²³ And there was an enclosure round about in them, round about to those four,––and, boiling places, had been made under the enclosures, round about. ²⁴ And he said unto me,––These, are the places of them who boil, where they who wait upon the house, shall boil, the sacrifice of the people.

¹¹ Then responded I, and said unto him,––What are these two olive–trees, upon the right of the lampstand, and upon the left thereof? ¹² And I responded a second time, and said unto him,––What are the two branches of the olive– trees which join the two golden tubes, which empty out of them the golden oil? ¹³ And he spake unto me, saying, Knowest thou not what these are? And I said, No, my lord. ¹⁴ Then said he, These, are the two Anointed Ones,––who stand near the Lord of all the earth.

⁴ From him, the commander, from him, the supporter, from him, the war–bow,––from him, shall proceed every one that driveth on, together;

⁷ For, the lips of a priest, should keep knowledge, and, a deliverance, should men seek at his mouth,–– for, the messenger of Yahweh of hosts, he is.

¹⁶ The people that was sitting in darkness, a great light, beheld,––and, on them who were sitting in land and shade of death, Light rose on them.

⁹ But, in vain, do they pay devotions unto me, teaching, for teachings, the commandments of men.

³⁵ Let your loins be girded, and your lamps burning,

³⁵ He, was the burning and shining lamp, and, ye, were willing to exult, for an hour, in his light.

⁶ Because, the God who said––Out of darkness, light shall shine! [is he] who hath shone in our hearts, in proportion to the radiance of the glorious knowledge of God, in the face of Christ.

²⁰ If ye have died, together with Christ, from the first principles of the world, why, as though alive in the world, are ye submitting to decrees,–– ²¹ Do not handle, nor taste, nor touch; –– ²² Which things are all for decay in the using up; ––according to the commandments and teachings of men? ²³ The which things, indeed, though they have, an appearance, of wisdom, in self–devised religious observance, and lowliness of mind, [and] ill–treatment of body, are, in no honourable way, unto a satisfying of the flesh.

¹⁸ In order that, through means of two unchangeable things, in which it was impossible for God to make himself false, a mighty consolation, we might have, who have fled along to grasp, the fore–lying hope,

⁵ Who, indeed, are rendering divine service, with a glimpse and shadow, of the heavenly things; even as Moses hath received intimation, when about to complete the tent,––For see! saith he––Thou shalt make all things according to the model which hath been pointed out to thee in the mount.

¹⁰ We have an altar––to eat out of which, they, have no right, who in the tent are doing divine service;

¹⁹ And we have, more firm, the prophetic word; ––whereunto ye are doing, well, to take heed,––as unto a lamp shining in a dusky place,––until, day, shall dawn, and, a day–star, shall arise in your hearts:––

¹ Unto the messenger of the assembly, in Ephesus, write:––These things, saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, he that walketh in the midst of the seven lamps of gold:

⁴ These, are the two olive–trees, and the two lamps, which, before the Lord of the earth, do stand.
