Pemikiran Yahudi Yehezkiel 40:22: The Third Beit HaMikdash

וחלונו [וְחַלּוֹנָ֤יו] ואלמו [וְאֵֽלַמָּיו֙] ותמרו [וְתִ֣מֹרָ֔יו] כְּמִדַּ֣ת הַשַּׁ֔עַר אֲשֶׁ֥ר פָּנָ֖יו דֶּ֣רֶךְ הַקָּדִ֑ים וּבְמַעֲל֥וֹת שֶׁ֙בַע֙ יַֽעֲלוּ־ב֔וֹ ואילמו [וְאֵֽילַמָּ֖יו] לִפְנֵיהֶֽם׃

Jendela-jendelanya, serambinya, dan hiasan pohon kurmanya berukuran sama dengan pintu gerbang yang menghadap ke timur. Orang naik ke situ melalui tujuh anak tangga, dan serambinya berada di depan anak-anak tangga itu.

The Third Beit HaMikdash

“They would ascend to it by seven steps.”3Ibid., 22. Radak and Rav Yitzchak Abarbanel explain that the steps mentioned here were necessary to accommodate the difference in height between this courtyard and the Courtyard of the Israelites. It is as if the verse is saying that people leaving this courtyard would ascend seven steps to the Courtyard of the Israelites.
