Ezekiel
42
Ezekiel 42:1 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the
north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate
place, and which was before the building toward the north.
2 Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was
fifty cubits.
3 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.
4 And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one
cubit; and their doors toward the north.
5 Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these,
than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
6 For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the
courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the
middlemost from the ground.
7 And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter
court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
8 For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits:
and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits.
9 And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth
into them from the utter court.
10 The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east,
over against the separate place, and over against the building.
11 And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were
toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their goings
out were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
12 And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a
door in the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the
east, as one entereth into them.
13 Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are
before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that
approach unto the Lord shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the
most holy things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass
offering; for the place is holy.
14 When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place
into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they
minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach
to those things which are for the people.
15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth
toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about.
16 He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with
the measuring reed round about.
17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round
about.
18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the
measuring reed.
20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred
reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary
and the profane place.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
