The Sanctuary of the LORD's House
Ezekiel 40 - 42

• The area a, b, d, and 3, are located upon the lower pavement, inside the wall (the "city's" bulwark), g.
• All the area within b and the lower pavement is at least eight steps higher than the lower pavement.
• The areas f, h, k, l, and m, are a number of steps yet higher than area i. These particular steps lead up (over the "low wall") to the porch of the temple.
• "The way," j, of the outer court connects the main porches of its gatehouses to the two areas, h, on the west side of the court.
• "The way," o, of the inner court connects the porches of its gates with the chambers of the priests in areas h.
• The altar of burnt offerings is the visible focal point of the "house" to the congregation assembled upon the pavement in the court below.
• Thirty chambers, and four corner courts, are also upon the lower pavement, on its perimeter.
