15. The man measured the length of the building facing the private area on the west side, and it was one hundred seventy-five feet from one wall to the other.The Holy Place, the Most Holy Place, and the outer porch
16. had wood panels on the walls. By the doorway, the Temple had wood panels on the walls. The wood covered all the walls from the floor up to the windows,
17. up to the part of the wall above the entrance.All the walls inside the Most Holy Place and the Holy Place, and on the outside, in the porch,
18. had carvings of creatures with wings and palm trees. A palm tree was between each carved creature, and every creature had two faces.
19. One was a human face looking toward the palm tree on one side. The other was a lion’s face looking toward the palm tree on the other side. They were carved all around the Temple walls.
20. From the floor to above the entrance, palm trees and creatures with wings were carved. The walls of the Holy Place
21. had square doorposts. In front of the Most Holy Place was something that looked like
22. an altar of wood. It was more than five feet high and three feet wide. Its corners, base, and sides were wood. The man said to me, “This is the table that is in the presence of the Lord.”
23. Both the Holy Place and the Most Holy Place had double doors.
24. Each of the doors had two pieces that would swing open.
25. Carved on the doors of the Holy Place were palm trees and creatures with wings, like those carved on the walls. And there was a wood roof over the front Temple porch.
26. There were windows and palm trees on both side walls of the porch. The side rooms of the Temple were also covered by a roof over the stairway.
