As it usually happens, right after the publication of the next video or Temple scheme, I find an error there. It seems that the prophet Yehezkel watches my videos and then somehow excite my mind so that I find my mistake.

Briefly: buildings for the Kohanim located near the western wall should be rotated 180° relative to the orientation of the rest of the buildings for the Kohanim.

This follows from these verses:

And before the chambers [was] a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.

<...>

And the way before them [was] like the appearance of the chambers which [were] toward the north, as long as they, [and] as broad as they: and all their goings out [were] both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.


And according to the doors of the chambers that [were] toward the south [was] a door in the head of the way, [even] the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.

(Ezekiel 42:4,11,12)

Isn't that a very clear text)

42:4 states that the buildings have doors on the north side (they also have doors on the south). That is, it is said about the front doors. This refers to the building, which is located in the inner court near the western wall, near the service entrance to the inner court.

After this, the prophet speaks of the other two buildings for the Kohanim. In 42:11,12 these buildings are compared to buildings that are near the western wall, and these buildings look exactly the same, but they are named as buildings facing south, as opposed to buildings near the western wall that are facing north.

Entrances.

It’s good that I still haven’t done the internal layout for the buildings for the Kohanim located
near the western wall ...
