through the land, 00:00:53.08\00:00:56.23 when any seeth a man's bone, 00:00:56.24\00:00:58.44 then shall he set up a sign by it, 00:00:58.45\00:01:00.34 till the buriers have buried it 00:01:00.35\00:01:02.30 in the valley of Hamongog. 00:01:02.31\00:01:04.65 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. 00:01:04.66\00:01:08.64 Thus shall they cleanse the land. 00:01:08.65\00:01:11.42 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord God, 00:01:11.43\00:01:14.73 Speak unto every feathered fowl, 00:01:14.74\00:01:17.46 and to every beast of the field, 00:01:17.47\00:01:19.68 Assemble yourselves, and come, 00:01:19.69\00:01:22.21 gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice 00:01:22.22\00:01:25.85 and I do sacrifice for you, 00:01:25.86\00:01:27.34 even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, 00:01:27.35\00:01:30.43 that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood. 00:01:30.44\00:01:32.54 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, 00:01:32.55\00:01:34.22 and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, 00:01:34.23\00:01:36.92 of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, 00:01:36.93\00:01:40.77 all of them fatlings of Bashan. 00:01:40.78\00:01:43.90 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, 00:01:43.91\00:01:45.86 and drink blood till ye be drunken, 00:01:45.87\00:01:47.85 of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you. 00:01:47.86\00:01:51.82 Thus ye shall be filled at my table 00:01:51.83\00:01:54.30 with horses and chariots, with mighty men, 00:01:54.31\00:01:56.87 and with all men of war, saith the Lord God. 00:01:56.88\00:02:00.32 And I will set my glory among the heathen, 00:02:00.33\00:02:03.77 and all the heathen shall see my judgment 00:02:03.78\00:02:06.30 that I have executed, and my hand 00:02:06.31\00:02:08.99 that I have laid upon them. 00:02:09.00\00:02:11.29 So the house of Israel shall know 00:02:11.30\00:02:13.90 that I am the Lord their God from that day and forward. 00:02:13.91\00:02:19.16 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel 00:02:19.17\00:02:22.03 went into captivity for their iniquity, 00:02:22.04\00:02:25.11 because they trespassed against me, 00:02:25.12\00:02:27.12 therefore hid I my face from them, 00:02:27.13\00:02:29.84 and gave them into the hand of their enemies, 00:02:29.85\00:02:32.80 so fell they all by the sword. 00:02:32.81\00:02:35.81 According to their uncleanness 00:02:35.82\00:02:37.87 and according to their transgressions 00:02:37.88\00:02:40.24 have I done unto them, and hid my face from them. 00:02:40.25\00:02:44.58 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, 00:02:44.59\00:02:46.71 Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, 00:02:46.72\00:02:50.73 and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, 00:02:50.74\00:02:55.07 and will be jealous for my holy name, 00:02:55.08\00:02:58.59 After that they have borne their shame, 00:02:58.60\00:03:01.08 and all their trespasses whereby 00:03:01.09\00:03:02.97 they have trespassed against me, 00:03:02.98\00:03:05.20 when they dwelt safely in their land, 00:03:05.21\00:03:07.12 and none made them afraid. 00:03:07.13\00:03:09.38 When I have brought them again from the people, 00:03:09.39\00:03:11.82 and gathered them out of their enemie's lands, 00:03:11.83\00:03:14.43 and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations, 00:03:14.46\00:03:18.50 Then shall they know that I am the Lord their God, 00:03:18.51\00:03:22.37 which caused them to be led 00:03:22.38\00:03:23.91 into captivity among the heathen, 00:03:23.92\00:03:26.31 but I have gathered them unto their own land, 00:03:26.32\00:03:29.46 and have left none of them any more there. 00:03:29.47\00:03:33.77 Neither will I hide my face any more from them, 00:03:33.78\00:03:37.05 for I have poured out my spirit upon 00:03:37.06\00:03:39.51 the house of Israel, saith the Lord God." 00:03:39.52\00:03:43.33 Continuing Ezekiel, Chapter 40

was upon me, 00:03:59.24\00:04:02.59 and brought me thither. 00:04:02.60\00:04:04.75 In the visions of God brought 00:04:04.76\00:04:07.25 he me into the land of Israel, 00:04:07.26\00:04:09.27 and set me upon a very high mountain, 00:04:09.28\00:04:12.13 by which was as the frame of a city on the south. 00:04:12.14\00:04:16.80 And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, 00:04:16.81\00:04:19.78 whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, 00:04:19.79\00:04:22.77 with a line of flax in his hand, 00:04:22.78\00:04:24.82 and a measuring reed, and he stood in the gate. 00:04:24.83\00:04:28.45 And the man said unto me, 00:04:28.46\00:04:30.63 Son of man, behold with thine eyes, 00:04:30.64\00:04:33.16 and hear with thine ears, 00:04:33.17\00:04:34.36 and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee, 00:04:34.37\00:04:38.32 for to the intent that I might shew them 00:04:38.33\00:04:41.24 unto thee art thou brought hither, 00:04:41.25\00:04:44.05 declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel. 00:04:44.06\00:04:48.64 And behold a wall on the outside 00:04:48.65\00:04:51.12 of the house round about, 00:04:51.13\00:04:53.51 and in the man's hand a

the gate, 00:10:41.85\00:10:44.33 eight tables, whereupon they slew their sacrifices. 00:10:44.34\00:10:48.86 And the four tables were of hewn stone 00:10:48.87\00:10:51.30 for the burnt offering, of a cubit and an half long, 00:10:51.31\00:10:55.31 and a cubit and an half broad, and one cubit high, 00:10:55.32\00:10:59.12 whereupon also they laid the instruments 00:10:59.13\00:11:01.80 wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice. 00:11:01.81\00:11:06.64 And within were hooks, 00:11:06.65\00:11:08.94 an hand broad, fastened round about, 00:11:08.95\00:11:10.81 and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering. 00:11:10.82\00:11:13.86 And without the inner gate 00:11:13.87\00:11:15.09 were the chambers of the singers in the inner court, 00:11:15.10\00:11:17.69 which was at the side of the north gate, 00:11:17.70\00:11:19.37 and their prospect was toward the south, 00:11:19.38\00:11:22.35 one at the side of the east gate 00:11:22.36\00:11:24.07 having the prospect toward the north. 00:11:24.08\00:11:27.00 And he said unto me, 00:11:27.01\00:11:28.14 This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, 00:11:28.15\00:11:32.14 is for the priests, 00:11:32.15\00:11:33.48 the keepers of the charge of the house. 00:11:33.49\00:11:36.76 And the chamber whose prospect 00:11:36.77\00:11:38.60 is toward the north is for the priests, 00:11:38.61\00:11:41.62 the keepers of the charge of the altar, 00:11:41.63\00:11:44.76 these are the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, 00:11:44.77\00:11:47.77 which come near to the Lord to minister unto him. 00:11:47.78\00:11:51.97 So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, 00:11:51.98\00:11:55.20 and an hundred cubits broad, foursquare, 00:11:55.21\00:11:58.21 and the altar that was before the house. 00:11:58.22\00:11:59.84 And he brought me to the porch of the house, 00:11:59.85\00:12:02.01 and measured each post of the porch, 00:12:02.02\00:12:03.98 five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side, 00:12:03.99\00:12:07.45 and the breadth of the gate 00:12:07.46\00:12:08.64 was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side. 00:12:08.65\00:12:12.49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits, 00:12:12.50\00:12:15.11 and the breadth eleven cubits, 00:12:15.12\00:12:17.63 and he brought me by the steps whereby they went up to it, 00:12:17.64\00:12:21.51 and there were pillars by the posts, 00:12:21.52\00:12:23.38 one on this side, and another on that side." 00:12:23.39\00:12:28.12 Continuing in Ezekiel, Chapter 41 00:12:28.13\00:12:30.84 and this is the King James Version. 00:12:30.85\00:12:33.85 "Afterward he brought me to the temple, 00:12:33.86\00:12:36.72 and measured the posts, 00:12:36.73\00:12:38.27 six cubits broad on the one side, 00:12:38.28\00:12:40.38 and six cubits broad on the other side, 00:12:40.39\00:12:42.40 which was the breadth of the tabernacle. 00:12:42.41\00:12:44.68 And the breadth of the door was ten cubits, 00:12:44.69\00:12:46.37 and the sides of the door were five cubits 00:12:46.38\00:12:48.68 on the one side, and five cubits on the other side, 00:12:48.69\00:12:51.32 and he measured the length thereof, 00:12:51.33\00:12:52.81 forty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits. 00:12:52.82\00:12:56.05 Then went he inward, 00:12:56.06\00:12:57.96 and measured the post of the door, 00:12:57.97\00:12:59.66 two cubits, and the door, six cubits, 00:12:59.67\00:13:02.17 and the breadth of the door, seven cubits. 00:13:02.18\00:13:04.62 So he measured the length thereof, 00:13:04.63\00:13:06.13 twenty cubits, and the breadth, 00:13:06.14\00:13:07.44 twenty cubits, before the temple, 00:13:07.45\00:13:09.00 and he said unto me, 00:13:09.01\00:13:10.63 This is the most holy place. 00:13:10.64\00:13:14.36 After he measured the wall of the house, 00:13:14.37\00:13:16.58 six cubits, and the breadth of every side chamber, 00:13:16.59\00:13:19.86 four cubits, round about the house on every side. 00:13:19.87\00:13:23.33 And the side chambers were three, 00:13:23.34\00:13:25.13 one over another, and thirty in order, 00:13:25.14\00:13:28.20 and they entered into the wall 00:13:28.21\00:13:29.69 which was of the house 00:13:29.70\00:13:31.55 for the side chambers round about, 00:13:31.56\00:13:33.35 that they might have hold, 00:13:33.36\00:13:35.32 but they had not hold in the wall of the house. 00:13:35.33\00:13:38.93 And there was an enlarging, 00:13:38.94\00:13:40.71 and a winding about still upward to the side chambers, 00:13:40.72\00:13:44.95 for the winding about of the house 00:13:44.96\00:13:46.46 went still upward round about the house, 00:13:46.47\00:13:49.73 therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, 00:13:49.74\00:13:52.66 and so increased from the lowest chamber 00:13:52.67\00:13:55.76 to the highest by the midst. 00:13:55.77\00:13:58.63 I saw also the height of the house round about, 00:13:58.64\00:14:01.04 the foundations of the side chambers 00:14:01.05\00:14:02.99 were a full reed of six great cubits. 00:14:03.00\00:14:06.43 The thickness of the wall, 00:14:06.44\00:14:07.61 which was for the side chamber without, 00:14:07.62\00:14:09.15 was five cubits, and that which was left 00:14:09.16\00:14:11.20 was the place of the side chambers that were within. 00:14:11.21\00:14:14.19 And between the chambers 00:14:14.20\00:14:15.65 was the wideness of twenty cubits 00:14:15.66\00:14:18.10 round about the house on every side. 00:14:18.11\00:14:20.66 And the doors of the side chambers 00:14:20.67\00:14:22.41 were toward the place that was left, 00:14:22.42\00:14:24.01 one door toward the north, 00:14:24.02\00:14:25.50 and another door toward the south, 00:14:25.51\00:14:26.88 and the breadth of the place 00:14:26.89\00:14:27.95 that was left was five cubits round about. 00:14:27.96\00:14:31.50 Now the building that was before the separate place 00:14:31.51\00:14:33.70 at the end toward the west was seventy cubits broad."
