Cypress trees around the Temple

[galgal]

Mediterranean cypress trees will be planted there. The height of the cypress reaches 30 meters, the trunk thickness is up to 60 cm, the life span can reach 2000 years.

Outside the temple complex, opposite each refectory hall, 3 cypress trees will be planted. The distance between the cypresses is 12 cubits (576 cm). The distance to the wall is 25 cubits (12 m). This distance allows specialized loader cars to drive up to the western wall, as well as to the wall near courtyards with kitchens.

24 cypress trees will be planted on the eastern side, 24 cypress trees will be planted on the north side, 24 cypress trees will be planted on the south side. Where the gate is located, 12 cypress trees are as if missed. There is no gate on the western side, so 36 cypress trees will be planted on the western side of the temple complex. Total 108 cypress trees near the wall.

The total number of cypresses should be 144. The missing 36 cypresses will be planted opposite each gate in the form of a wedge at 90 °, 6 on each shoulder of the wedge. Trees ascend to the gates of Ezekiel's Temple.

Thus, there will be two roads to each gate of the Temple, one on the right and one on the left.
