  1. 1

    וּכְמוֹ כֵן לְסוֹף קנ"א אַמָּה כְּפִי הַחֶשְׁבּוֹן שֶׁלְּמַעְלָה (סימן ט) רָאָה בַּנְּבוּאָה שַׁעַר, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (יחזקאל מ, כד-כו) "וַיּוֹלִיכֵנִי [ה'] דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם, וְהִנֵּה שַׁעַר דֶּרֶךְ הַדָּרוֹם, וּמָדַד אֵילָיו וְאֵילַמָּיו כַּמִּדּוֹת הָאֵלֶּה, וְחַלּוֹנִים לוֹ וּלְאֵילַמָּיו סָבִיב סָבִיב כְּהַחַלֹּנוֹת הָאֵלֶּה, חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה אוֹרֶךְ" – פֵּרוּשׁ גָּבְהוֹ. "וְרֹחַב" - מַה שֶּׁבֵּין גַּג תָּא לְגַג [הַ]תָּא שֶׁכְּנֶגְדּוֹ – "חָמֵשׁ וְעֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה, וּמַעֲלוֹת שִׁבְעָה עוֹלוֹתָיו, וְאֵילַמָּיו לִפְנֵיהֶם, וְתִמוֹרִים לוֹ, אֶחָד מִפּוֹ וְאֶחָד מִפּוֹ אֶל אֵילָיו".

    Similarly, after proceeding 151 cubits along the wall on the southern side,1Sec. 9. the prophet saw a gateway, as it is written:2Yechezkel 40:24-26. “[God]3The Scripture does not mention God’s name. By mentioning God's name, Tosafos Yom Tov may be trying to emphasize that it was God, and not the angel, Who led Yechezkel through the vision of the Third Beis HaMikdash. took me towards the south. Behold, there was the Southern Gate. He4The angel. measured its pillars and its vestibules, and they were the same as these measures.5I.e., those of the Northern Gate. It had windows and vestibules around it like these windows. Its height6The verse uses the term orech, see sec. 3 above. was 50 cubits. The width [from the edge of the roof of the cell to the edge of the roof of the second cell] was 25 cubits. Its stairway had seven steps. Its vestibule was further inside than them. It had palm-like coronets, one on one side and one on the other, on its pillars.”
