Ezekiel's Temple is the Third Temple

It is not known how long it will take to translate the entire text into English, as I do not speak English at all. Google translation, back and forth, checking against KJV, against Masoretic, checking accepted terms against the English Wiki, it's a slow process.

I leave here a link to a partially translated "Temple according to the prophecy of Ezekiel, project 1534" (PDF). Source text in OpenOffice 4.0.1, Russian original, current English translation.

A missing element has been added: the front wall of the porch of the Tabernacle, 1 hand breadth high, providing a performance for the size of 11 cubits. A missing element has been added: the front wall of the porch of the Tabernacle, 1 hand breadth high, providing a performance for the size of 11 cubits. Attention! Corrected: between the 9th and 10th steps the distance is 1335 mm, according to Daniel's prophecy. It is important.

Inside the Tabernacle, 144 palms and 144 cherubs are depicted on the walls. The wooden incense altar has some of the functions of the  table for shewbread: the altar has a shelf for its utensils. Accordingly, in the Third Temple there will be no table for shewbread  and there will be no seven-candlestick lamp, the menorah. This will mean that the Lord God has already accepted the 12 shewbread, that is, the 12 tribes of Israel, into his insides, and 7 Churches have already been raptured into heaven. God will now accept from us only the incense of our prayers. The sprinkling of blood from sacrifices for the sin of the high priest, or for the sin of the  congregation of Israel, performed according to the Law of Moses within the Tabernacle, will no longer be required.



I corrected the erroneous arrangement of the inner doors: there should be 6 cubits between the axes of the pillars, and the distance between the outer and inner doors should not allow opening the halves of the doors on the same side at the same time, the interior of the Tabernacle should be protected from outside gaze.

Straight trunks of palm trees on the walls are extended by straight root lines, forming 2 large squares, 24 medium squares, 2x144 small squares. There are three cross-shaped figures in the middle in this drawing, but they should not stand out from the overall drawing. The middle squares on the side of the Holy of Holies are colored light blue in the sky. The middle squares at the entrance to the Tabernacle are pink. The four middle squares in the center seem to be interchanged with each other to show us the number 8 or two intertwined rings as a sign of the marriage of God and the Church.

Two thousand six hundred years of torment will now be able to end safely: we understood a few lines that seemed quite clear to us.

First, the kohanim should not walk on the top of the altar. Therefore, around the altar itself, "ariel", there must be a platform that is 3 cubits below the upper surface where the fire burns, as shown in Exodus 27. According to Ezekiel, the height of the upper part of the altar, the height of "ariel", is 4 cubits. There is no way to reach the front edge of the altar, where a constant fire was burning, if you stand on the ramp. Walking on a narrow, 1 cubit wide, ledge at a height of more than three meters is a risky exercise. Now this is no longer required.

The platform referred to in Ezekiel 43:17 is 1 cubit thick, and it sits on the ledge on which "ariel" stands, who is 4 cubits high. Therefore, relative to this platform, which is 14 cubits wide to each side of the "ariel", the height of the upper surface of the "ariel" is 3 cubits. In the same place, Ezekiel indicates that the steps are located on the eastern side of this platform, on which the kohanim ascend. Since this platform is 8 cubits high, we cannot build a staircase with an integer number of steps. All rungs of stairs in the Third Temple are 144 mm high, this is determined by the prophecy of Ezekiel. With the help of these steps, we can create stairs in multiples of 1½ cubits. Ezekiel describes an altar with the heights of its protrusions at 1, 3, 7 and 8 cubits. The height of the landings for us would not coincide with this set of heights.

Therefore, the altar must have ramps. Stairs and ramps are the same Hebrew word. This word means ascent without indicating the way in which it is carried out. Ezekiel uses this word in the plural, not in the dual. This means that there should be at least three of these ramps.

The minimum requirement for ramps is a slope of no more than 1:5. To climb to a height of 8 cubits, we need a ramp 40 cubits long. If the ramp starts from the edge of the 100-cubit square in front of the House of the Sanctuary, then we are forced to move the altar towards the Temple by 10 cubits. Ezekiel does not mention anywhere that the altar should be in the center of this square, on the contrary, he says that the altar is located in front of the Temple (40:47). So, we move the altar towards the Temple by 10 cubits and connect the north and south gates with the same ramp. To do this, we divide the straight ramp into 4 equal parts and bend 3 parts by 90 °.

The resulting shape of the three ramps at the altar, when viewed from above, surprisingly resembles a lily symbol.



The altar is 10 cubits above the base, that is, it is the same height as in the Temple of Solomon. We'll make it out of bronze. The upper part of the altar, "ariel", is hollow. The lower part is finished in bronze and can be filled with soil inside. The platform on which the kohanim walk is made of stones, because it says about the "border", in one case half a cubit, and in the other case, one third of a cubit. Ezekiel does not say about this size, it is up, or to the side. But if this border is a metal corner used to strengthen the masonry, then this size is both in height and in width at the same time. Therefore, we consider this a sign that stones are being used there. The base of the altar is made of stones, and the platform on which the kohanim work is also made of stones. Of course, the ramps will also be made of stones. For strength and beauty, these ramps will be sheathed in bronze on the outside.



Ezekiel does not write about the railing around the platform where the kohanim work, but the fence must be required, the height there is 3 meters 84 cm.

I think that the solution we have received is not only successful, but also correct. That is, exactly what we were going to for so long ...

Outside the temple complex are buildings that were not described in the book of the prophet Ezekiel.

All buildings adjacent to the territory of the manor of the Lord should have a modest appearance, they should not stand out for their outlines among the natural outlines of mountains and hills, these buildings should not be visible from the top of the main mountain, which is north of the temple complex.

I have shown a possible rough view of these buildings.

The focal plane of the inner parabolic surface of the dome is located at a height of three and a half cubits above the outer court. Therefore, there is an acoustic connection between the northern and southern parts of the outer court.



This should create interesting effects of the voices of people who are actually located in another, invisible place for you.

The wavelength of the sound of a human voice is approximately 1-2 meters, that is, the dome of the Temple will create interconnected cells on the southern and northern sides of the outer courtyard with approximately the same resolution. This roughly corresponds to the distance between people during meetings.

The presence of God's Spirit can organize the interaction of the words spoken by the Jews on different sides of the Sanctuary, into one whole, corresponding to the will of God. This meaningful integrity, organized by the Spirit, will give rise to a feeling of contact with God, a feeling of our common unity in Him.

Thus, the Third Temple will be, as it were, an amplifier, a mouthpiece that helps us hear the words of the Creator uttered by Him through us.

I fixed a significant mistake in my model: the roof of the external gate is really a separate roof, not connected with the roof of the hall where the guardrooms are located. This roof of the outer gate should hang over the porches in order to provide cover for exiting visitors. If one of the incoming visitors dies in the hall near the guardrooms, this will not affect the ritual purity of the leaving visitors, because there is a different roof over them.

This architectural detail is not my whim. The prophecy separately states that the guardrooms have their own roofs, although from an engineering point of view they could use the common roof of the hall. Separate roofs at the outer gate and at the hall where the guardrooms are located are necessary because the prophecy stipulates that the appearance of the halls on the outer and innner courts is the same, although there are no additional external gates on the inner court.

The total number of cherubs is 144, there are now 7 copper cherubs on the front facade.
