### Note

Adjective. Spelling trap: «spacious» (with c), not «spatious». The noun is «space». It describes inside space; for outside places people often say «open» or «wide».

## In Jewish tradition

Jeremiah describes a king building himself a wide house with large rooms.

**Interpretation.** Jeremiah condemns the king for building a grand palace while treating workers unfairly. Tradition teaches that justice matters more than fine buildings.

### Examples

- That saith: 'I will build me a wide house and spacious chambers', and cutteth him out windows, and it is ceiled with cedar, and painted with vermilion. (Prophets JER.22.14, JPS 1917) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/S/spacious/#x1)
