The wall around the house and the measuring of the gate toward the east, which the speaker sees
말하는 이가 본 집 바깥 담과 동향한 문의 척량
Ezekiel 40:5–16: the text says, “Behold, there was a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man’s hand a measuring reed six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand width each. So he measured the thickness of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed. Then he came to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate, one reed wide; and the other threshold, one reed wide. Every lodge was one reed long and one reed wide. Between the lodges was five cubits. The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate toward the house was one reed. He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed. Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was toward the house. The side rooms of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side. The three of them were of one measure. The posts had one measure on this side and on that side. He measured the width of the opening of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits; and a border before the lodges, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the side rooms, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side. He measured the gate from the roof of the one side room to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits, door against door. He also made posts, sixty cubits; and the court reached to the posts, around the gate. From the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits. There were closed windows to the side rooms, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches. Windows were around inward. Palm trees were on each post.” The Korean Revised Version opens 40:5 in the speaker’s first person, 내가 본즉 (the speaker saw), where WEB reads “Behold”. At 40:5 it reads 그 담을 척량하니 (measured the wall), where WEB reads “So he measured the thickness of the building”; and at 40:14 it reads 그가 또 현관을 척량하니 광이 이십척이요 (he also measured the porch, twenty cubits wide), where WEB reads “He also made posts, sixty cubits”.
