The Vision of the Temple. . 1 Afterward he brought me to the temple, and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the tabernacle. 2 And the breadth of the door was ten cubits; and the sides of the door were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured the length thereof, forty cubits: and the breadth, twenty cubits. 3 Then went he inward, and measured the post of the door, two cubits; and the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, seven cubits. 4 So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said unto me, This is the most holy place. 5 After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side. 6 And the side chambers were three, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which was of the house for the side chambers round about, that they might have hold, but they had not hold in the wall of the house. 7 And there was an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, and so increased from the lowest chamber to the highest by the midst. 8 I saw also the height of the house round about: the foundations of the side chambers were a full reed of six great cubits. 9 The thickness of the wall, which was for the side chamber without, was five cubits: and that which was left was the place of the side chambers that were within. 10 And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits round about the house on every side. 11 And the doors of the side chambers were toward the place that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits round about. We are still attending a prophet that is under the guidance of an angel, and therefore attend with reverence, though we are often at a loss to know both what this is and what it is to us. Observe here, 1. After the prophet had observed the courts he was at length brought to the temple, Ezekiel 41:1 ; Ezekiel 41:1 . If we diligently attend to the instructions given us in the plainer parts of religion, and profit by them, we shall be led further into an acquaintance with the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven. Those that are willing to dwell in God's courts shall at length be brought into his temple. Ezekiel was himself a priest, but by the iniquity and calamity of the times was cut short of his birthright privilege of ministering in the temple; but God makes up the loss to him by introducing him into this prophetical, evangelical, celestial temple, and employing him to transmit a description of it to the church, in which he was dignified above all the rest of his order. 2. When our Lord Jesus spoke of the destroying of this temple, which his hearers understood of this second temple of Jerusalem, he spoke of the temple of his body ( John 2:19 ; John 2:21 ); and with good reason might he speak so ambiguously when Ezekiel's vision had a joint respect to them both together, including also his mystical body the church, which is called the house of God ( 1 Timothy 3:15 ), and all the members of that body, which are living temples, in which the Spirit dwells. 3. The very posts of this temple, the door-posts, were as far one from the other, and consequently the door was as wide, as the whole breadth of the tabernacle of Moses ( Ezekiel 41:1 ; Ezekiel 41:1 ), namely, twelve cubits, Exodus 26:16 ; Exodus 26:22 ; Exodus 26:25 . In comparison with what had been under the law we may say, Wide is the gate which leads into the church, the ceremonial law, that wall of partition which had so much straitened the gate, being taken down. 4. The most holy place was an exact square, twenty cubits each way, Ezekiel 41:4 ; Ezekiel 41:4 . For the new Jerusalem is exactly square ( Revelation 21:16 ), denoting its stability; for we look for a city that cannot be moved. 5. The upper stories were larger than the lower, Ezekiel 41:7 ; Ezekiel 41:7 . The walls of the temple were six cubits thick at the bottom, five in the middle story, and four in the highest, which gave room to enlarge the chambers the higher they went; but care was taken that the timber might have fast hold (though God builds high, he builds firmly), yet so as not to weaken one part for the strengthening of another; they had hold, but not in the wall of the house. By this spreading gradually, the side-chambers that were on the height of the house (in the uppermost story of all) were six cubits, whereas the lowest were but four; they gained a cubit every story. The higher we build up ourselves in our most holy faith the more should our hearts, those living temples, be enlarged. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-12-26" class="com-number"

**성전 본체와 곁방의 치수**
> 그다음 그가 나를 성전으로 데리고 가서 문 기둥을 측량하니 이쪽 폭이 여섯 규빗이요 저쪽 폭이 여섯 규빗이라 이는 장막의 너비이더라. 문의 너비는 열 규빗이요 문의 양쪽 벽이 이쪽에 다섯 규빗이요 저쪽에 다섯 규빗이며 그가 그 길이를 측량하니 사십 규빗이요 너비는 스무 규빗이더라. 그다음 그가 안으로 들어가서 문 기둥을 측량하니 두 규빗이요 문은 여섯 규빗이요 문의 너비는 일곱 규빗이더라. 그가 그 길이를 측량하니 스무 규빗이요 너비는 스무 규빗이라 성전 앞에서 이르되 이는 지성소라 하더라. 그다음 그가 성전의 벽을 측량하니 여섯 규빗이요 성전 사방 곁방의 너비는 네 규빗이더라. 곁방은 삼 층이요 하나 위에 하나씩 있어 삼십 개이며 그 곁방이 사방 성전 벽 속으로 들어갔으나 성전 본 벽에는 들어가지 아니하였더라. 곁방이 점점 넓어짐은 성전 사방으로 높이 올라감을 따라 더 넓어짐이라 성전이 위로 올라갈수록 더 넓어지므로 아래층에서 위층까지 중간 방을 통하여 올라가더라. 내가 성전 사방의 높이를 보니 곁방의 기초가 온전한 갈대 척 곧 여섯 큰 규빗이더라. 바깥 곁방의 벽 두께는 다섯 규빗이요 그 안은 곁방의 터가 되었으며 곁방들 사이 곧 성전 사방에 남은 빈터의 너비는 스무 규빗이더라. 곁방의 문은 남은 빈터로 향하였는데 하나는 북쪽으로, 하나는 남쪽으로 향하였고 그 사방 빈터의 너비는 다섯 규빗이더라. (에스겔 41:1~11)
이 본문에서 주목할 사항들은 다음과 같다.
1. **선지자가 마침내 성전 본체로 안내받다(1절).** 우리가 종교의 더 평범한 부분들에 대한 가르침을 부지런히 따르고 거기서 유익을 얻는다면, 우리는 하늘나라의 신비에 더 깊이 이끌릴 것이다. 하나님의 뜰에 기꺼이 머물고자 하는 이들은 마침내 그분의 성전으로 인도될 것이다. 에스겔은 제사장이었으나 시대의 죄악과 재앙으로 인해 성전에서 섬기는 생득적 특권을 잃었다. 그러나 하나님은 그를 이 예언적이고 복음적이며 천상적인 성전으로 인도하시고, 그 묘사를 교회에 전달하는 일을 그에게 맡기심으로써 그 손실을 보충해 주셨다. 이 일에서 에스겔은 동료 제사장들 모두를 능가하는 영예를 얻었다.
2. **우리 주 예수님이 이 성전의 파괴를 언급하셨을 때(요 2:19; 2:21).** 그를 듣는 이들은 예루살렘 제2성전을 가리키는 것으로 이해했지만, 예수님은 자신의 몸이라는 성전에 대해 말씀하셨다. 에스겔의 환상이 이 둘을 함께 바라보았고 — 그의 신비로운 몸인 교회(딤전 3:15에서 하나님의 집이라 불린다)와 그 몸의 모든 지체들, 곧 성령이 거하시는 살아있는 성전들도 포함하여 — 주님께서 그렇게 모호하게 말씀하셨던 것은 충분한 이유가 있다.
3. **이 성전의 문기둥들이 서로 얼마나 멀리 떨어져 있는가 — 문의 너비.** 모세의 장막 너비 전체만큼 넓었다(1절), 즉 열두 규빗이다(출 26:16; 26:22; 26:25). 율법 아래 있었던 것과 비교할 때, 교회로 들어가는 문은 넓다고 말할 수 있다. 의식법, 곧 문을 크게 좁혔던 저 분리의 장벽이 허물어졌기 때문이다.
4. **지성소는 정확한 정사각형으로, 각 방향 스무 규빗이었다(4절).** 새 예루살렘도 정확하게 정사각형이다(계 21:16). 이는 그 안정성을 나타낸다. 왜냐하면 우리는 움직일 수 없는 도성을 바라보기 때문이다.
5. **위층이 아래층보다 컸다(7절).** 성전 벽의 두께는 아래에서 여섯 규빗이었고, 가운데 층은 다섯, 가장 높은 층은 네 규빗이었다. 이것이 위로 올라갈수록 방들을 더 넓게 할 여지를 주었다. 목재가 단단히 붙잡히도록(하나님은 높이 짓지만 튼튼하게 짓는다) 주의를 기울였다. 그러나 성전 본 벽을 약화시키지는 않았다 — "들어갔으나 성전 본 벽에는 들어가지 아니하였다." 이처럼 점차적으로 퍼져 나감으로써, 최상층에 있는 곁방들은 여섯 규빗이 되었다. 반면 가장 낮은 층은 네 규빗에 불과했다. 매 층마다 한 규빗씩 더해졌다. 우리가 가장 거룩한 믿음 안에서 더 높이 세워질수록, 살아있는 성전인 우리의 마음도 더욱 넓어져야 한다.

E Z E K I E L. CHAP. XLI. An account was given of the porch of the house in the close of the foregoing chapter; this brings us to the temple itself, the description of which here given creates much difficulty to the critical expositors and occasions differences among them. Those must consult them who are nice in their enquiries into the meaning of the particulars of this delineation; it shall suffice us to observe, I. The dimensions of the house, the posts of it ( Ezekiel 41:1 ), the door ( Ezekiel 41:2 ), the wall and the side-chambers ( Ezekiel 41:5 ; Ezekiel 41:6 ), the foundations and wall of the chambers, their doors ( Ezekiel 41:8-11 ), and the house itself, Ezekiel 41:13 . II. The dimensions of the oracle, or most holy place, Ezekiel 41:3 ; Ezekiel 41:4 . III. An account of another building over against the separate place, Ezekiel 41:12-15 . IV. The manner of the building of the house, Ezekiel 41:7 ; Ezekiel 41:16 ; Ezekiel 41:17 . V. The ornaments of the house, Ezekiel 41:18-20 . VI. The altar of incense and the table, Ezekiel 41:22 . VII. The doors between the temple and the oracle, Ezekiel 41:23-26 . There is so much difference both in the terms and in the rules of architecture between one age and another, one place and another, that it ought not to be any stumbling-block to us that there is so much in these descriptions dark and hard to be understood, about the meaning of which the learned are not agreed. To one not skilled in mathematics the mathematical description of a modern structure would be scarcely intelligible; and yet to a common carpenter or mason among the Jews at that time we may suppose that all this, in the literal sense of it, was easy enough. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-1-11" class="com-number"

에스겔 41장은 성전 본체에 대한 묘사를 담고 있다. 앞 장 말미에서 성전 현관에 대한 설명이 주어졌고, 이 장은 성전 본체 자체로 우리를 인도한다. 여기서 제시되는 묘사는 세밀한 해석을 추구하는 학자들에게 많은 어려움을 안겨 주며, 그들 사이에서도 견해 차이를 낳는다. 세부 사항의 의미를 엄밀히 탐구하고 싶은 이는 그 학자들을 직접 참조하라.
우리가 여기서 주목할 내용은 다음과 같다.
1. 성전의 치수 — 기둥(1절), 문(2절), 벽과 곁방(5~6절), 곁방의 기초와 벽, 그 문들(8~11절), 성전 본체(13절).
2. 지성소, 곧 가장 거룩한 곳의 치수(3~4절).
3. 격리된 공간 앞에 있는 또 다른 건물에 대한 설명(12~15절).
4. 성전 건물의 양식(7·16~17절).
5. 성전의 장식(18~20절).
6. 분향 제단과 상(22절).
7. 성전과 지성소 사이의 문(23~26절).
한 시대와 다른 시대, 한 지역과 다른 지역 사이에 건축 용어와 규칙의 차이가 매우 크기 때문에, 이 묘사들 가운데 상당 부분이 어둡고 이해하기 힘들며 학자들도 그 의미에 동의하지 못한다는 사실이 우리를 걸려 넘어지게 해서는 안 된다. 수학에 능하지 않은 사람에게는 현대 건물의 수학적 설명이 거의 이해 불가능하다. 그러나 당시 유대인 목수나 석공에게는 이 모든 것이 문자적 의미에서 충분히 이해 가능했을 것이다.

The Vision of the Temple. . 12 Now the building that was before the separate place at the end toward the west was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof ninety cubits. 13 So he measured the house, a hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with the walls thereof, an hundred cubits long; 14 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, a hundred cubits. 15 And he measured the length of the building over against the separate place which was behind it, and the galleries thereof on the one side and on the other side, a hundred cubits, with the inner temple, and the porches of the court; 16 The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about on their three stories, over against the door, cieled with wood round about, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows were covered; 17 To that above the door, even unto the inner house, and without, and by all the wall round about within and without, by measure. 18 And it was made with cherubims and palm trees, so that a palm tree was between a cherub and a cherub; and every cherub had two faces; 19 So that the face of a man was toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side: it was made through all the house round about. 20 From the ground unto above the door were cherubims and palm trees made, and on the wall of the temple. 21 The posts of the temple were squared, and the face of the sanctuary; the appearance of the one as the appearance of the other. 22 The altar of wood was three cubits high, and the length thereof two cubits; and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and the walls thereof, were of wood: and he said unto me, This is the table that is before the LORD . 23 And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors. 24 And the doors had two leaves apiece, two turning leaves; two leaves for the one door, and two leaves for the other door. 25 And there were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubims and palm trees, like as were made upon the walls; and there were thick planks upon the face of the porch without. 26 And there were narrow windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch, and upon the side chambers of the house, and thick planks. Here is, 1. An account of a building that was before the separate place (that is, before the temple), at the end towards the west ( Ezekiel 41:12 ; Ezekiel 41:12 ), which is here measured, and compared ( Ezekiel 41:13 ; Ezekiel 41:13 ) with the measure of the house, and appears to be of equal dimensions with it. This stood in a court by itself, which is measured ( Ezekiel 41:15 ; Ezekiel 41:15 ) and its galleries, or chambers belonging to it, its posts and windows, and the ornaments of them, Ezekiel 41:15-17 ; Ezekiel 41:15-17 . But what use was to be made of this other building we are not told; perhaps, in this vision, it signified the setting up of a church among the Gentiles not inferior to the Jewish temple, but of quite another nature, and which should soon supersede it. 2. A description of the ornaments of the temple, and the other building. The walls on the inside from top to bottom were adorned with cherubim and palm-trees, placed alternately, as in Solomon's temple, 1 Kings 6:29 . Each cherub is here said to have two faces, the face of a man towards the palm tree on one side and the face of a young lion towards the palm-tree on the other side, Ezekiel 41:19 ; Ezekiel 41:19 . These seem to represent the angels, who have more than the wisdom of a man and the courage of a lion; and in both they have an eye to the palms of victory and triumph which are set before them, and which they are sure of in all their conflicts with the powers of darkness. And in the assemblies of the saints angels are in a special manner present, 1 Corinthians 11:10 . 3. A description of the posts of the doors both of the temple and of the sanctuary; they were squared ( Ezekiel 41:21 ; Ezekiel 41:21 ), not round like pillars; and the appearance of the one was as the appearance of the other. In the tabernacle, and in Solomon's temple, the door of the sanctuary, or most holy, was narrower than that of the temple, but here it was fully as broad; for in gospel-times the way into the holiest of all is made more manifest than it was under the Old Testament ( Hebrews 9:8 ) and therefore the door is wider. These doors are described, Ezekiel 41:23 ; Ezekiel 41:24 . The temple and the sanctuary had each of them its door, and they were two-leaved, folding doors. 4. We have here the description of the altar of incense, here said to be an altar of wood, Ezekiel 41:22 ; Ezekiel 41:22 . No mention is made of its being over-laid with gold; but surely it was intended to be so, else it would not bear the fire with which the incense was to be burned, unless we will suppose that it served only to put the censers upon. Or else it intimates that the incense to be offered in the gospel-temple shall be purely spiritual, and the fire spiritual, which will not consume an altar of wood. Therefore this altar is called a table. This is the table that is before the Lord. Here, as before, we find the altar turned into a table; for, the great sacrifice being now offered, that which we have to do is to feast upon the sacrifice at the Lord's table. 5. Here is the adorning of the doors and windows with palm-trees, that they might be of a piece with the walls of the house, Ezekiel 41:25 ; Ezekiel 41:26 . Thus the living temples are adorned, not with gold, or silver, or costly array, but with the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible. return to ' Top of Page ' Ezekiel Ezk 40 Ezekiel Ezk Ezekiel Ezk 42 Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain and are a derivative of an electronic edition that is available on the Christian Classics Ethereal Library Website.

**격리 공간 앞 건물, 성전 장식, 분향 제단과 문**
> 격리된 공간 앞 서쪽 끝에 있는 건물의 너비는 일흔 규빗이요 그 건물의 사방 벽 두께는 다섯 규빗이요 그 길이는 아흔 규빗이더라. 그가 성전을 측량하니 길이가 백 규빗이요 또 격리된 공간과 그 건물과 그 벽을 합하여도 백 규빗이요 동쪽을 향한 성전 정면과 격리된 공간의 너비도 백 규빗이더라. 그가 격리된 공간 뒤쪽에 있는 그 건물의 길이를 측량하니 양쪽 다락들과 함께 백 규빗이며 안쪽 성전과 뜰의 현관들도 그러하더라. 문 기둥과 창살 창들과 삼 층에 에워싼 다락들이 문에 맞은편으로 있고 그 안쪽은 나무로 두르고 땅에서 창들까지 나무가 둘렸으며 창들도 덮였더라. 문 위에서부터 성전 안쪽 위까지와 바깥쪽도 그러하며 안팎 모든 벽을 측량하였더라. 벽에 그룹들과 종려나무들이 새겨져 있는데 그룹과 그룹 사이마다 종려나무가 있으며 각 그룹의 얼굴이 둘이니 사람의 얼굴은 이쪽 종려나무를 향하고 사자 새끼의 얼굴은 저쪽 종려나무를 향하였으며 이것을 온 성전 사방에 새겼더라. 땅에서 문 위까지 그룹들과 종려나무들이 성전 벽에 새겨졌더라. 성전 문 기둥은 네 모가 졌고 성소의 앞모양도 그러하더라. 나무 제단의 높이는 세 규빗이요 길이는 두 규빗이며 그 모퉁이들과 그 길이와 그 벽들이 나무로 되었는데 그가 내게 이르되 이것은 여호와 앞의 상이라 하더라. 성전과 성소에 각각 두 문이 있었고 그 두 문은 각각 두 짝으로 되었는데 이쪽 문도 두 짝으로 접히고 저쪽 문도 두 짝으로 접히더라. 성전 문에는 다른 곳의 벽에 새긴 것과 같이 그룹들과 종려나무들이 새겨졌고 바깥 현관 앞에는 두꺼운 판자들이 있었으며 현관 양쪽 벽과 성전 곁방들과 두꺼운 판자들에도 창살 창들이 있었더라. (에스겔 41:12~26)
이 본문에는 다음 내용이 담겨 있다.
1. **격리된 공간 앞, 서쪽 끝에 있는 건물에 대한 설명(12절).** 이 건물은 측량되고(12절), 성전의 치수와 비교된다(13절). 그것은 성전과 같은 크기임이 드러난다. 이 건물은 독자적인 뜰 안에 서 있었는데, 그 다락들과 현관들, 기둥들과 창들, 그리고 그 장식들도 측량되었다(15~17절). 그러나 이 다른 건물이 어떤 용도로 사용될 것인지는 알려지지 않는다. 아마도 이 환상에서 그것은 이방인들 사이에 세워질 교회를 의미했을 것이다. 유대 성전에 못지않지만 전혀 다른 성격의 교회, 그리고 곧 유대 성전을 대체할 교회.
2. **성전과 다른 건물의 장식에 대한 묘사.** 내부 벽은 위에서 아래까지 그룹들과 종려나무들로 장식되었다. 솔로몬 성전에서처럼 번갈아 배치되었다(왕상 6:29). 각 그룹은 두 얼굴을 가졌는데, 한쪽 종려나무를 향한 사람의 얼굴과 다른 쪽 종려나무를 향한 어린 사자의 얼굴이었다(19절). 이것들은 천사들을 표상하는 것으로 보인다. 천사들은 사람의 지혜와 사자의 용기 이상을 갖고 있다. 그리고 이 두 가지 모두에서, 그들은 눈앞에 놓인 승리와 개선의 종려나무들을 바라본다. 어둠의 권세와 벌이는 모든 싸움에서 확실한 승리를 바라보면서. 또한 성도들의 모임에서 천사들은 특별한 방식으로 함께 있다(고전 11:10).
3. **성전과 성소의 문 기둥에 대한 묘사(21절).** 그것들은 네 모가 졌고(기둥처럼 둥글지 않았으며), 양쪽의 모양이 같았다. 장막과 솔로몬 성전에서는 성소, 곧 지성소의 문이 성전의 문보다 좁았다. 그러나 여기서는 완전히 같은 너비였다. 복음의 시대에는 가장 거룩한 곳으로 들어가는 길이 구약 시대보다 더 명확하게 드러났기 때문이다(히 9:8). 그래서 문이 더 넓다. 이 문들은 23~24절에 묘사되어 있다. 성전과 성소는 각각 문이 있었고, 두 짝으로 된 접히는 문이었다.
4. **분향 제단에 대한 묘사.** 여기서는 나무 제단이라고 불린다(22절). 금으로 덮었다는 언급이 없다. 그러나 분명 그럴 의도였을 것이다. 그렇지 않다면 향을 피울 불을 견딜 수 없었을 것이다. 다만 향로를 올려놓는 용도로만 쓰인다고 본다면 모르겠지만. 아니면 이것은 복음 성전에서 드려질 향이 순전히 영적이고, 그 불도 영적이어서 나무 제단을 태우지 않을 것임을 암시하는지도 모른다. 그 이유로 이 제단을 상이라고 부른다 — "이것은 여호와 앞의 상이라." 여기서도 전과 마찬가지로, 제단이 상으로 바뀐 것을 본다. 이제 위대한 제사가 드려졌으므로, 우리가 할 일은 주님의 상에서 그 제사의 열매를 누리는 것이기 때문이다.
5. **문과 창문의 장식.** 종려나무로 장식되어 성전 벽과 조화를 이루게 했다(25~26절). 이처럼 살아있는 성전들은 금이나 은이나 값비싼 옷으로가 아니라, 썩지 않는 것인 마음속 숨겨진 사람으로 단장된다.
