What does Ezekiel 40:24 mean?
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezekiel 40:20-27
20-27. The different approaches corresponded in plan. In the case of these two other gates, however, no mention is made of a building with thirty chambers such as was found on the east side. Only one was needed, and it was assigned to the east as being the sacred quarter, and that most conveniently situated for the officiating priests.
