What.
flying.
the length.
 It was twenty cubits long and ten broad; and this was the exact size of the tabernacle in the wilderness, as may be gathered from the number and the width of the boards which composed it (Ex. 26:15-25); and it was also the size of the porch of Solomon’s temple (1 Kings 6:3)...they teach, either that the judgment proceeding would be according to the holiness of Jehovah’s habitation in the midst of Israel, that He was about to weigh the conduct of the wicked in Israel in the balances of the sanctuary, or that judgment would begin at the house of God. (See Ezek. 9:6.) In either case the holiness of the house, that is, the holiness of Him who dwells therein, according to the revelation of His name to His people, would be the standard of judgment. (Zechariah 5 by E. Dennett)
