11. And the derech before them was like the appearance of the leshakhot which were toward the north, as long as they, and as wide as they; and all their exits were both according to their arrangements, and according to their doorways.
12. And according to the doorways of the leshakhot that were toward the south was a petach in the rosh of the derech, even the derech directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.
13. Then said he [the angelic being] unto me, The leshakhot hatzafon and the leshakhot hadarom, which are before the Gizrah, they are leshakhot hakodesh, where the Kohanim that approach unto Hashem shall eat the kadshei hakadashim; there shall they put the kadshei hakadashim, and the minchah, and the chattat, and the asham (trespass offering); for the place is kadosh.
14. When the Kohanim enter therein, then shall they not go out of the Kodesh into the khatzer hakhitzonah, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are kodesh; and shall put on begadim acherim (other garments); then shall they approach the precinct of the people.
15. Now when he [the angelic being] had made an end of measuring the Beis HaPenimi, he brought me forth toward the sha'ar whose view is toward the east, and measured it all around.
16. He measured the eastern side with the measuring rod, five hundred rods, with the keneh hamiddah (measuring rod) all around.
17. He measured the northern side, five hundred rods, with the keneh hamiddah all around.
