The South Gate
And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches thereof were before them: and it had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof. Eze 40:26
seven steps to... There were 7 steps leading up from the outside of the outer wall, which was 10 feet 6 inches thick, to the pavement inside the wall. The same was true of all 3 gates—the east, north, and south gates (Eze. 40:6, 40:22, 40:26).
palm trees,... The palm trees and posts were the same for all 3 gates (Eze. 40:16, 40:22, 40:26).
This is speaking of another floor, seven steps above the one previously mentioned. The decorations were the same as before.
Ezekiel was then led from the east gate of the outer court to the north gate (Eze. 40:20-23) and to the south gate (Eze. 40:24-27).
