Guiding Questions: Ezekiel 42

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

  1. The description continues with the “offices”; has the prophet indicated who or what category of personnel occupy these offices?
  2. How does Ezekiel 42:6 explain the absence of pillars?
  3. How does Ezekiel 42:13 specify the function of the various “offices”?
  4. What are “kadshe hakadashim” (Ezekiel 42:13)?
  5. In Ezekiel 42:14, the description departs from the building to the function of the kohanim. From where are they not to exit?
  6. According to Ezekiel 42:20, what is the function of the walls which surround the “inner area”?
