The man then brought me to the gate that opened to the east.

So the glory of Yahweh came to the house by way of the gate that opened to the east.

Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court. Behold! The glory of Yahweh was filling the house.

The man was standing beside me, and I heard someone else speaking to me from the house.

He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of my feet, where I will live in the midst of the people of Israel forever. The house of Israel will no longer profane my holy name—they or their kings—with their faithlessness or with the corpses of their kings at their high places.

They will no longer profane my holy name by putting their threshold next to my threshold, and their gateposts next to my gateposts, with nothing but a wall between me and them. They profaned my holy name with their disgusting actions, so I consumed them with my anger.

9 now to remove [obj] fornication their and corpse king their from me and to dwell in/on/with midst their to/for forever: enduring

Now let them remove their faithlessness and the corpses of their kings from before me, and I will live in their midst forever.

For if they are ashamed of all that they have done, then reveal to them the design of the house, its details, its exits, its entrances, and all its designs, all its decrees and rules. Then write this down before their eyes so they will keep to all its design and all its rules, so as to obey them.
