New Living Translation

Ezekiel 46:20-24 New Living Translation (NLT)

20. He explained, “This is where the priests will cook the meat from the guilt offerings and sin offerings and bake the flour from the grain offerings into bread. They will do it here to avoid carrying the sacrifices through the outer courtyard and endangering the people by transmitting holiness to them.”

21. Then he brought me back to the outer courtyard and led me to each of its four corners. In each corner I saw an enclosure.

22. Each of these enclosures was 70 feet long and 521/2 feet wide, surrounded by walls.

23. Along the inside of these walls was a ledge of stone with fireplaces under the ledge all the way around.

24. The man said to me, “These are the kitchens to be used by the Temple assistants to boil the sacrifices offered by the people.”
