46:19. And he brought me in by the entry that was at the side of the
gate, into the chambers of the sanctuary that were for the priests,
which looked toward the north. And there was a place bending to the
west.
46:20. And he said to me: This is the place where the priests shall boil
the sin offering, and the trespass offering: where they shall dress the
sacrifice, that they may not bring it out into the outward court, and
the people be sanctified.
46:21. And he brought me into the outward court, and he led me about by
the four corners of the court: and behold there was a little court in
the corner of the court, to every corner of the court there was a little
court.
46:22. In the four corners of the court were little courts disposed,
forty cubits long, and thirty broad, all the four were of one measure.
46:23. And there was a wall round about compassing the four little
courts, and there were kitchens built under the rows round about.
46:24. And he said to me: This is the house of the kitchens wherein the
ministers of the house of the Lord shall boil the victims of the people.
Ezechiel Chapter 47
The vision of the holy waters issuing out from under the temple: the
borders of the land to be divided among the twelve tribes.
47:1. And he brought me again to the gate of the house, and behold
waters issued out from under the threshold of the house toward the east:
for the forefront of the house looked toward the east: but the waters
came down to the right side of the temple to the south part of the
altar.
Waters... These waters are not to be understood literally (for there
were none such that flowed from the temple); but mystically, of the
baptism of Christ, and of his doctrine and his grace: the trees that
grow on the banks are Christian virtues: the fishes are Christians, that
spiritually live in and by these holy waters, the fishermen are the
apostles, and apostolic preachers: the fenny places, where there is no
health, are such as by being out of the church are separated from these
waters of life.
47:2. And he led me out by the way of the north gate, and he caused me
to turn to the way without the outward gate to the way that looked
toward the east: and behold there ran out waters on the right side.
47:3. And when the man that had the line in his hand went out towards
the east, he measured a thousand cubits: and he brought me through the
water up to the ankles.
47:4. And again he measured a thousand, and he brought me through the
water up to the knees.
47:5. And he measured a thousand, and he brought me through the water up
to the loins. And he measured a thousand, and it was a torrent, which I
could not pass over: for the waters were risen so as to make a deep
torrent, which could not be passed over.
47:6. And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man. And he
brought me out, and he caused me to turn to the bank of the torrent.
47:7. And when I had turned myself, behold on the bank of the torrent
were very many trees on both sides.
47:8. And he said to me: These waters that issue forth toward the
hillocks of sand to the east, and go down to the plains of the desert,
shall go into the sea, and shall go out, and the waters shall be healed.
47:9. And every living creature that creepeth whithersoever the torrent
shall come, shall live: and there shall be fishes in abundance after
these waters shall come thither, and they shall be healed, and all
things shall live to which the torrent shall come.
47:10. And the fishers shall stand over these waters, from Engaddi even
to Engallim there shall be drying of nets: there shall be many sorts of
the fishes thereof, as the fishes of the great sea, a very great
multitude:
