1 Και με εξηγαγεν εις την αυλην την εξωτεραν κατα την οδον την προς βορραν· και με εφερεν εις τον θαλαμον τον απεναντι του κεχωρισμενου μερους κατα τον κατα προσωπον της οικοδομης, προς βορραν.

2 κατα προσωπον του μηκους, το οποιον ητο εκατον πηχων, ητο η βορειος θυρα, το δε πλατος πεντηκοντα πηχων.

3 Απεναντι των εικοσι πηχων, αιτινες ησαν δια την εσωτεραν αυλην, και απεναντι του λιθοστρωτου του δια την εξωτεραν αυλην, ητο στοα αντικρυ στοας τριπλη.

4 Και κατα προσωπον των θαλαμων ητο περιπατος δεκα πηχων το πλατος, και προς τα εσω οδος μιας πηχης· και αι θυραι αυτων ησαν προς βορραν.

5 Οι δε ανωτατοι θαλαμοι ησαν στενωτεροι, επειδη αι κατω στοαι και αι μεσαιαι της οικοδομης εξειχον μαλλον παρα εκεινους.

6 Διοτι ουτοι ησαν εις τρια πατωματα, δεν ειχον ομως στυλους ως τους στυλους των αυλων· δια τουτο η οικοδομη εστενουτο μαλλον παρα το κατωτατον και το μεσαιον απο της γης.

7 Και ο τοιχος ο εξωθεν απεναντι των θαλαμων, προς την εξωτεραν αυλην κατα προσωπον των θαλαμων, ειχε μηκος πεντηκοντα πηχων.

8 Διοτι το μηκος των θαλαμων των εν τη εξωτερα αυλη ητο πεντηκοντα πηχων· και ιδου, κατα προσωπον του ναου ησαν εκατον πηχαι.

9 Κατωθεν δε των θαλαμων τουτων ητο η εισοδος κατα ανατολας, καθως υπαγει τις προς αυτους απο της αυλης της εξωτερας.

10 Οι θαλαμοι ησαν εις το παχος του τοιχου της αυλης προς ανατολας, κατα προσωπον του κεχωρισμενου μερους και κατα προσωπον της οικοδομης.

11 Και η οδος η κατα προσωπον αυτων ητο κατα την θεαν των θαλαμων των προς βορραν· ειχον ισον μηκος με εκεινους, ισον πλατος με εκεινους· και πασαι αι εξοδοι αυτων ησαν και κατα τας διαταξεις εκεινων και κατα τας θυρας εκεινων.

12 Και κατα τας θυρας των βαλαμων των προς νοτον ητο θυρα εις την αρχην της οδου, της οδου κατ' ευθειαν απεναντι του τοιχου προς ανατολας, καθως εμβαινει τις προς αυτα.

13 Και ειπε προς εμε, Οι βορειοι θαλαμοι και οι νοτιοι θαλαμοι οι κατα προσωπον του κεχωρισμενου μερους, ουτοι ειναι θαλαμοι αγιοι, οπου οι ιερεις οι πλησιαζοντες εις τον Κυριον θελουσι τρωγει τα αγιωτατα· εκει θελουσι θετει τα αγιωτατα και την προσφοραν την εξ αλφιτων και την περι αμαρτιας προσφοραν και την περι ανομιας προσφοραν, διοτι ο τοπος ειναι αγιος.

14 Οταν οι ιερεις εισερχωνται εκει, δεν θελουσιν εξερχεσθαι απο του αγιου τοπου εις την αυλην την εξωτεραν, αλλ' εκει θελουσιν αποθετει τα ενδυματα αυτων, με τα οποια λειτουργουσι, διοτι ειναι αγια· και θελουσιν ενδυεσθαι αλλα ενδυματα, και τοτε θελουσι πλησιαζει εις ο, τι ειναι του λαου.

15 Αφου δε ετελειωσε τα μετρα του εσωθεν οικου, με εξηγαγε προς την πυλην την βλεπουσαν κατα ανατολας και εμετρησεν αυτον κυκλω κυκλω.

16 Εμετρησε την ανατολικην πλευραν με το καλαμινον μετρον, πεντακοσιους καλαμους, με το καλαμινον μετρον κυκλω.

17 Εμετρησε την βορειον πλευραν, πεντακοσιους καλαμους, με το καλαμινον μετρον κυκλω.

18 Εμετρησε την νοτιον πλευραν, πεντακοσιους καλαμους, με το καλαμινον μετρον.

19 Εστραφη επειτα προς την δυτικην πλευραν και εμετρησε πεντακοσιους καλαμους με το καλαμινον μετρον.

20 Εμετρησεν αυτον κατα τας τεσσαρας πλευρας· ειχε τοιχον κυκλω κυκλω, πεντακοσιων καλαμων το μηκος και πεντακοσιων το πλατος, δια να καμνη χωρισμα μεταξυ του αγιου και του βεβηλου τοπου.

53. 25. A day of cloud and thick darkness (Ezekiel 34:12).

(I will make Mount Seir and the cities thereof into a waste and devastation, into a waste of eternity (Ezekiel 35:3-4, 7, 9, 12, 14-15).

Then the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes shall be built (Ezekiel 36:10).

When I shall sanctify Myself among you, then I will give you a new heart, and I will give a new spirit in the midst of you and I will take away the heart of stone, and will give you a heart of flesh, and I will give a new spirit in your midst, and ye shall be My people, and I will be your God (Ezekiel 36:23, 26-28).

In the day that I have cleansed you from all your iniquities, I will make you to dwell in cities, and the waste places shall be built; they shall say, This land that was devastated is become as the garden of Eden, and the desolate and devastated cities are fortified and inhabited (Ezekiel 36:33-38).

Behold I will open your graves and cause you to come up out of your graves, O my people, and I will lead you upon the land of Israel, and I will put my spirit in you that ye may live (Ezekiel 37:12-14). Concerning the dry bones: by the inflowing of the breath among them, and their living again, regeneration is described.

After many days thou shalt be visited, and in the latter days they shall come upon the land that was made a waste (Ezekiel 38:8, 16).

They shall bury Gog in the day in which I shall be glorified (Ezekiel 39:11-12, 13). Gog is one who is in external worship, but not in internal.

Of the great sacrifices upon the mountains of Israel, and that thus He will set His glory among the nations that they may know that Jehovah is their God from that day, and hence-forward (Ezekiel 39:17-22).

Of the New Church which is described by many things in Ezekiel 40-48: of the city which is the New Jerusalem, and of its gates (40): of the temple, etc. (41): of the court and of the chambers there (42): of the eastern gate where the glory of the God of Israel is seen, and of His worship (43): next of His worship and of ministration (44): of the statutes for the prince (45, 46): of waters from the house (47) of the allotment of the land according to tribes (47, 48). That the name of the city is, Jehovah there (48:35).

Ezekiel 45

Funda

   

1 Moreover, when you shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, you shall offer an offering to Yahweh, a holy portion of the land; the length shall be the length of twenty-five thousand [reeds], and the breadth shall be ten thousand: it shall be holy in all its border all around.

2 Of this there shall be for the holy place five hundred [in length] by five hundred [in breadth], square all around; and fifty cubits for its suburbs all around.

3 Of this measure you shall measure a length of twenty-five thousand, and a breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be the sanctuary, which is most holy.

4 It is a holy portion of the land; it shall be for the priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who come near to minister to Yahweh; and it shall be a place for their houses, and a holy place for the sanctuary.

5 Twenty-five thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth, shall be to the Levites, the ministers of the house, for a possession to themselves, [for] Twenty rooms.

6 You shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad, and twenty-five thousand long, side by side with the offering of the holy portion: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.

7 [Whatever is] for the prince [shall be] on the one side and on the other side of the holy offering and of the possession of the city, in front of the holy offering and in front of the possession of the city, on the west side westward, and on the east side eastward; and in length answerable to one of the portions, from the west border to the east border.

8 In the land it shall be to him for a possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more oppress my people; but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.

9 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Let it suffice you, princes of Israel: remove violence and spoil, and execute justice and righteousness; dispossessing my people, says the Lord Yahweh.

10 You shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath.

11 The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, that the bath may contain the tenth part of a homer, and the ephah the tenth part of a homer: its measure shall be after the homer.

12 The shekel shall be twenty gerahs. twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels shall be your mina.

13 This is the offering that you shall offer: the sixth part of an ephah from a homer of wheat; and you shall give the sixth part of an ephah from a homer of barley;

14 and the set portion of oil, of the bath of oil, the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, [which is] ten baths, even a homer; (for ten baths are a homer;)

15 and one lamb of the flock, out of two hundred, from the well-watered pastures of Israel--for a meal offering, and for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to make atonement for them, says the Lord Yahweh.

16 All the people of the land shall give to this offering for the prince in Israel.

17 It shall be the prince's part to give the burnt offerings, and the meal offerings, and the drink offerings, in the feasts, and on the new moons, and on the Sabbaths, in all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin offering, and the meal offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make atonement for the house of Israel.

18 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: In the first [month], in the first [day] of the month, you shall take a young bull without blemish; and you shall cleanse the sanctuary.

19 The priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it on the door posts of the house, and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the posts of the gate of the inner court.

20 So you shall do on the seventh [day] of the month for everyone who errs, and for him who is simple: so you shall make atonement for the house.

21 In the first [month], in the fourteenth day of the month, you shall have the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.

22 On that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bull for a sin offering.

23 The seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to Yahweh, seven bulls and seven rams without blemish daily the seven days; and a male goat daily for a sin offering.

24 He shall prepare a meal offering, an ephah for a bull, and an ephah for a ram, and a hin of oil to an ephah.

25 In the seventh [month], in the fifteenth day of the month, in the feast, shall he do the like the seven days; according to the sin offering, according to the burnt offering, and according to the meal offering, and according to the oil.
