40:20 他量外院朝北的門，長寬若干。
40:21 門洞的衛房，這旁三間，那旁三間。門洞的柱子和廊子，與第一門的尺寸一樣。門洞長五十肘，寬二十五肘。
40:22 其窗櫺和廊子，並雕刻的棕樹，與朝東的門尺寸一樣。登七層臺階上到這門，前面有廊子。
40:23 內院有門與這門相對，北面東面都是如此。他從這門量到那門，共一百肘。
40:24 他帶我往南去，見朝南有門，又照先前的尺寸量門洞的柱子和廊子。
40:25 門洞兩旁與廊子的周圍都有窗櫺，和先量的窗櫺一樣。門洞長五十肘，寬二十五肘。
40:26 登七層臺階上到這門，前面有廊子；柱上有雕刻的棕樹，這邊一棵，那邊一棵。
40:27 內院朝南有門。從這門量到朝南的那門，共一百肘。
20 As for the gate that faced toward the
north, belonging to the outer court, he measured its length and its breadth. 21
Its side rooms, three on either side, and its jambs and its vestibule were of
the same size as those of the first gate. Its length was fifty cubits, and its
breadth twenty- five cubits. 22 And its windows, its vestibule, and its palm
trees were of the same size as those of the gate that faced toward the east.
And by seven steps people would go up to it, and find its vestibule before
them. 23 And opposite the gate on the north, as on the east, was a gate to the
inner court. And he measured from gate to gate, a hundred cubits.
24 And he led me toward the south, and
behold, there was a gate on the south. And he measured its jambs and its
vestibule; they had the same size as the others. 25 Both it and its vestibule
had windows all around, like the windows of the others. Its length was fifty
cubits, and its breadth twenty- five cubits. 26 And there were seven steps
leading up to it, and its vestibule was before them, and it had palm trees on
its jambs, one on either side. 27 And there was a gate on the south of the
inner court. And he measured from gate to gate toward the south, a hundred
cubits.

以西結的聖殿是四四方方的結構，並且開口面向東方，南方與北方是互相對應的，使我們感受到敬拜上帝的人，凡事要照規矩來形，不是以我們的思想為中心，是以上帝為中心！
我們的生命也應該是如此，讓上帝成為我們生命之中心，使上帝的愛子耶穌基督成為我們的遮蓋和拯救，我們才能來親近上帝！
我們不需要別的遮蓋與拯救，單單需要耶穌基督的救贖！沒有耶穌基督，就沒有永生，就沒有辦法與上帝有正確合宜的關係！
