Ezekiel 42:9

7 An outer wall in front of the chambers was fifty cubits long and ran parallel to the chambers and the outer court.

8 For the chambers on the outer court were fifty cubits long, while those facing the temple were a hundred cubits long.

And below these chambers was the entrance on the east side as one enters them from the outer court.

10 On the south side along the length of the wall of the outer court were chambers adjoining the courtyard and opposite the building,

11 with a passageway in front of them, just like the chambers that were on the north. They had the same length and width, with similar exits and dimensions.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
