While many creators of the models of Ezekiel's Temple try to use the 60 cubits mentioned in the prophecy as the height of the pillars near the gate, which is a gross mistake, almost everyone who uses English Bible translations misses the fact that Ezekiel gave us the necessary information about the number of stairs steps The temple and the level of the first floor of the Temple.
In front of the entrance to the porch of the Tabernacle there is a staircase that has 10 steps, in accordance with the prophecy of Ezekiel (version of the Masoretic text).
Proceeding from the requirement of multiplicity of vertical dimensions to the size of one cubit, the only possible height of one step for this staircase is the height of 144 millimeters.
(If we have a staircase with 10 steps, then the height of one step is unacceptably small, if the level of the first floor is 1 or 2 cubits, or the height of the step is unacceptably large, if the level of the first floor is 4 or more cubits. We have the only option when the level of the first floor is 3 cubits, while the height of the step will be equal to 144 mm.)
Thus, the height of the steps of any stationary stairs in the Third Temple should be 144 mm, and the step can be determined from the tables.
