Ezekiel 41:6-8

Contemporary English Version

⁶ There were three levels of rooms, with 30 rooms on each level, and they rested on ledges that were attached to the temple walls, so that nothing was built into the walls. ⁷ The walls of the temple were thicker at the bottom than at the top, which meant that the storage rooms on the top level were wider than those on the bottom level.^[a] Steps led from the bottom level, through the middle level, and into the top level.

⁸ The temple rested on a stone base three meters high, which also served as the foundation for the storage rooms.
