Ezekiel 42:5
Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building. Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
Ezekiel 42:5 belongs to the Lord's directions concerning buildings to be prepared. It stands within the vision in which the building and its chambers are measured exactly, with every least detail recorded by the measuring reed. The exactness of those measurements shows that God's standard is precise and applies even to the smallest matters. These chapters reveal the Lord as a planner who is ready to help people when matters are handled rightly.
