The act of measuring signifies precision and order, reflecting God's meticulous design for His dwelling place. The building facing the temple courtyard suggests a structure integral to the temple complex, possibly serving a specific function in worship or administration. This reflects the importance of the temple as the center of spiritual life for Israel, emphasizing God's presence among His people.including its galleries on each side Galleries in ancient architecture often served as covered walkways or viewing areas. Their inclusion in the temple design suggests a place for priests or worshippers to gather, observe, or participate in temple activities. This architectural feature highlights the communal aspect of worship and the accessibility of the temple to those who serve there. It also underscores the organized and hierarchical nature of temple service, with designated spaces for different functions.it was a hundred cubits A cubit is an ancient measurement roughly equivalent to 18 inches or 45 centimeters. Thus, a hundred cubits would be approximately 150 feet or 45 meters. This substantial size indicates the grandeur and significance of the temple structure. The specific measurement underscores the temple's role as a monumental and sacred space, reflecting the glory and majesty of God. It also aligns with other biblical descriptions of sacred architecture, such as Solomon's Temple, emphasizing continuity in divine worship.The outer sanctuary, the inner sanctuary, and the porticoes facing the court The outer sanctuary, or the Holy Place, was where priests performed daily rituals, symbolizing the ongoing relationship between God and His people. The inner sanctuary, or the Holy of Holies, was the most sacred space, housing the Ark of the Covenant and representing God's immediate presence. The porticoes, or porches, provided transitional spaces between the sacred and the secular, illustrating the movement from the world into God's presence. This arrangement reflects the structure of Solomon's Temple and foreshadows the ultimate fulfillment of God's presence with humanity through Jesus Christ, who is described as the true temple in the New Testament.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/e/ezekiel.htm">Ezekiel</a> A prophet and priest during the Babylonian exile, Ezekiel is the author of the book and the one receiving the vision of the temple. 2. <a href="/topical/t/the_temple.htm">The Temple</a> The vision of the temple described in <a href="/bsb/ezekiel/40.htm">Ezekiel 40-48</a> is a detailed architectural plan given to Ezekiel, symbolizing God's presence and future restoration. 3. <a href="/topical/t/the_courtyard.htm">The Courtyard</a> Part of the temple complex, the courtyard is a significant area for worship and gathering. 4. <a href="/topical/t/the_galleries.htm">The Galleries</a> Architectural features of the temple, possibly referring to colonnades or balconies, indicating the grandeur and complexity of the structure. 5. <a href="/topical/t/the_outer_sanctuary.htm">The Outer Sanctuary</a> The part of the temple where priests would perform their duties, symbolizing a place of holiness and service.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/g/god's_detailed_plan.htm">God's Detailed Plan</a> The precise measurements and descriptions in <a href="/ezekiel/41-15.htm">Ezekiel 41:15</a> remind us that God is a God of order and detail.

This clause is therefore to be understood as equivalent to "So he measured," or, "And he had measured." The dimensions of each of the principal parts is then repeated: the building to the west of the Temple, the Temple itself, and the porches of the court. The only new point introduced is "the galleries thereof." It seems certain that this must refer to the building beyond "the separate place;" but the word for galleries occurs only here and in <a href="/ezekiel/41-16.htm" title="The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about on their three stories, over against the door, paneled with wood round about, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows were covered;">Ezekiel 41:16</a>, and <a href="/ezekiel/42-3.htm" title="Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.">Ezekiel 42:3</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/42-5.htm" title="Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.">Ezekiel 42:5</a>, and its derivation is quite unknown. The translation, galleries, is probably correct; and as there was a space of 10 cubits on each side of the building in question, there may very well have been galleries covering and protecting its entrances, although they are not located with sufficient definiteness to be drawn on the plan.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/ezekiel/41.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 15. - With this verse begins a summary of measurements of which some have been already given, while others are new.
