“Then he measured
The temple.
It was
A hundred cubits long.
The yard
With the building,
Including its walls,
Was one hundred cubits deep.
The width
Of the east front
Of the temple
With the yard,
Was one hundred cubits.
Then he measured
The depth of the building
Facing the yard,
Together with its galleries
On either side,
A hundred cubits.”
Now the bronze man was back measuring the Temple. However, he included the yard and its building, as well as its galleries. This turned out to be a square building, 100 cubits long and wide, about a 160 feet square building with the front facing east and the back facing west.
