vs 2 (KJV): |
Breadth of the door was 10 cubits and the sides of the door were 5 cubits on the one side and the other, and the length thereof 40 cubits, breadth 20 cubits. |
|||
| vs 2 (NIV): |
Entrance 10 cubits and projecting walls 5 cubits wide. Outer sancuary was 40 cubits long by 20 cubits wide. |

| 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. |
