There was a barrier of one cubit on this side and a barrier of one cubit on that side, and the guard chambers were six cubits on this side and six cubits on that side—detailing the arrangement of passage with barriers and the dimensions of guard chambers. The barriers suggest protective divisions or partial walls that channel passage through the gate. The six-cubit dimensions of guard chambers on either side establish space for guards or officials overseeing access. The detail suggests that the gate functions not merely as a physical passage but as a control point for access to sacred space. This verse continues the detailed measurement of gate components.
