Ezekiel 41:7New American Standard Bible (NASB ©1995) [2]
— The side chambers surrounding the temple were wider at each successive story. Because the structure surrounding the temple went upward by stages on all sides of the temple, therefore the width of the temple [increased] as it went higher; and thus one went up from the lowest [story] to the highest by way of the second [story].

English Revised Version (ERV 1885)
— And the side-chambers were broader as they encompassed [the house] higher and higher; for the encompassing of the house went higher and higher round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house [continued] upward; and so one went up [from] the lowest [chamber] to the highest by the middle [chamber].

Ezekiel 41:7

A winding about — Winding stairs, which enlarged as the rooms did, and these run up between each two chambers from the bottom to the top; so there were two doors at the head of each pair of stairs, one door opening into one chamber, and the other into the opposite chamber. For the winding about — These stairs, as they rose in height, enlarged themselves too. Round about — On all sides of the house where these chambers were. The breadth — Of each chamber. Increased — Grew broader by one cubit in every upper chamber. From five in the lowest to six in the middle, and to seven in the highest chamber. |
