Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)

The posts of the temple were squared,.... Or, were "foursquare" (n); the two posts on each side the door, the lintel and the threshold, made a square; the posts themselves were not round, as pillars, but flat and square; and the upper part was not arched, as in some buildings, but square. Jarchi says he had heard that the posts of Solomon's temple were foursquare; but that is not certain; however, these were.

Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

The posts - Not the word used before (see Eze 40:9 note). These “posts” are rather pilasters forming part of the inner walls. The appearance ... other - i. e., the appearance in this vision was the same as in the actual temple (compare Eze 43:3); (or, according to others, the front of the sanctuary resembled, the front of the holy place).
