The hooks and bands on the posts were made out of silver. Their tops were covered with silver. So all the posts of the courtyard had silver bands.The curtain for the courtyard entrance was made out of blue, purple and bright red yarn and finely twisted linen. A person who sewed skillfully made it. It was 30 feet long. Like the curtains of the courtyard, it was seven feet six inches high.It had four posts and four bronze bases. Their hooks and bands were made out of silver. Their tops were covered with silver.All the tent stakes of the holy tent were made out of bronze. So were all the stakes of the courtyard around it.

Near the inner gates were two rooms. They were in the inner courtyard. One room was next to the north gate. It faced south. The other one was next to the south gate. It faced north.

Then the man measured the north gate. He wanted to show me how long and wide it was. The gate led into the outer courtyard.

Then the man brought me into the inner courtyard. We went through the south gate. He measured it. It was the same size as the others.

The inner courtyard had a gate. It faced the gate on the north. It was just like the east gate. He measured from one gate to the one across from it. The total was 175 feet.

the curtains of the courtyard with their posts and bases, and the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard the ropes and tent stakes for the courtyard everything that belongs to the holy tent, the tent of meeting

He measured along the front of the side walls all around the inside of the gateway. The total was 105 feet. That didn’t include the porch that faced the courtyard.

I will keep my promise in the courtyards of the Lord’ s temple. I will keep my promise in Jerusalem itself. Praise the Lord.

A single day in your courtyards is better than a thousand anywhere else. I would rather guard the door of the house of my God than live in the tents of sinful people.

In the two courtyards of the Lord’ s temple Manasseh built altars to honor all the stars in the sky.

Finally, he turned and measured the west side. It was 875 feet long.So he measured the area on all four sides. It had a wall around it. The wall was 875 feet long and 875 feet wide. It separated what was holy from what was not.

On that same day the king set the middle area of the courtyard apart to the Lord. It was in front of the Lord’ s temple. There Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings and grain offerings. He also sacrificed the fat of the friendship offerings there. He did it there because the bronze altar that stood in front of the Lord was too small. It wasn’t big enough to hold all the burnt offerings, the grain offerings and the fat of the friendship offerings.

Then they made 50 loops along the edge of the end curtain in the one set. They did the same thing with the other set.

One row of rooms was next to the inner courtyard. The other row was across from the sidewalk of the outer courtyard. Each room was 35 feet long. Walkways in front of each row faced each other on all three floors.

Then the man brought me to the east side of the inner courtyard. There he measured the gateway. It was the same size as the others.

Set up the courtyard around the holy tent. Put the curtain at the entrance to the courtyard.

Their roots will be firm in the house of the Lord. They will grow strong and healthy in the courtyards of our God.

Give thanks as you enter the gates of his temple. Give praise as you enter its courtyards. Give thanks to him and praise his name.

He said to me,“ This is where the priests must cook the guilt offerings and sin offerings. They must 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.”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.So in the four corners of the outer courtyard were walled courtyards. Each one was 70 feet long and 53 feet wide. All of them were the same size.Around the inside of each of the four courtyards was a stone ledge. Places for fire were built all around under each ledge.The man said to me,“ These are the kitchens. Those who serve at the temple must cook the people’s sacrifices here.”

He used blocks of stone to build a wall around the inside courtyard. The first three layers of the wall were made out of stone. The top layer was made out of beautiful cedar wood.
