Ezekiel 40:11

Und er maß die Breite des Eingangs des Thors: zehn Ellen; die Länge des Thors: dreizehn Ellen.

Was bedeutet das?

This verse describes the dimensions of a gate entrance in a vision Ezekiel had about a new temple. The gate was ten cubits wide and thirteen cubits long. Ezekiel is the one speaking, and the key message is about the precise measurements of the temple's structures.

Für Kinder erklärt

Imagine you're building a fort, and you need to know how big the door should be. In this story, Ezekiel is told how big the door of a special building should be. It's like measuring your door at home, but much bigger!

Historischer Hintergrund

Ezekiel, a prophet, wrote this book around 593-571 BCE. He was in exile in Babylon, and the book is a series of visions he received from God. The audience was the exiled Israelites, and the cultural setting was one of despair and the hope of returning to the promised land.
