Architect's Note : The 10 and 5 cubit measurements tell us that the author is telling us of the Porth. The 40 and 20 cubit measurements tells us that the Sanctuary ratio of 2:1 is being recorded. These measurements are double their normal size for the reason to relate a new Holies Position to the Original Site, yet by measurement and ratio, their different positions are directly related.
