“After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side.”
And he measured the wall of the temple, which was six cubits, and the width of the side chambers around the temple was four cubits all around—describing supporting structures around the main temple building. The side chambers suggest the tripartite structure of the temple; supporting chambers flank the main structure. The six-cubit thickness of the temple wall suggests substantial construction. The four-cubit width of side chambers allows space for storage and support functions. This verse describes the architectural framework supporting the main sanctuary.
