Ezekiel's Measured Temple
The most heavily dimensioned structure in the text, and the only one where the interesting question is not how big it was but whether the numbers add up.
Reference: Ezekiel 40–42 · the cubit is defined at 40:5
Ezekiel defines his own cubit. Chapter 40 verse 5 gives a measure of "a cubit and a handbreadth" — at the book's conventions, 18 in plus 3 in, so 21 in (53.34 cm). The measuring reed is six of those. Everything on this page uses that cubit, and the toggle shows what the common cubit would do instead.
