Ezechiel 41:1

And he brought me into the temple, and he measured the fronts six cubits broad on this side, and six cubits on that side, the breadth of the tabernacle.

Challoner: The templeThis plan of a temple, which was here shewn to the prophet in a vision, partly had relation to the material temple, which was to be rebuilt: and partly, in a mystical sense, to the spiritual temple of God, the church of Christ.

The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): Et introduxit me in templum, et mensus est frontes : sex cubitos latitudinis hinc, et sex cubitos latitudinis inde, latitudinem tabernaculi.
Septuagint (Swete): Καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὸν ναόν, ᾧ διεμέτρησεν τὸ αἰλὰμ πηχῶν ἓξ τὸ πλάτος ἔνθεν,
Hebrew (WLC): וַיְבִיאֵ֖נִי אֶל הַהֵיכָ֑ל וַיָּ֣מָד אֶת הָאֵילִ֗ים שֵׁשׁ אַמּ֨וֹת רֹ֧חַב מִפּ֛וֹ וְשֵׁשׁ אַמּֽוֹת רֹ֥חַב מִפּ֖וֹ רֹ֥חַב הָאֹֽהֶל

Haydock's commentary

The temple. This plan of a temple, which was here shewn to the prophet in a vision, partly had relation to the material temple, which was to be rebuilt: and partly, in a mystical sense, to the spiritual temple of God, the Church of Christ. (Challoner)

The description seems grander than Solomon's; and yet Zorobabel's temple was meaner than his. Hence this prophecy, and those of Aggeus and Zacharias, cannot be understood of it, but of the Church. (St. Jerome; St. Augustine, City of God xviii. 45.) (Worthington)
