Ezekiel 45:1
<< Ezekiel 45:1 >>
"And when you divide by lot the land for inheritance, you shall offer an allotment to the LORD, a holy portion of the land; the length shall be the length of 25,000 cubits, and the width shall be 20,000. It shall be holy within all its boundary round about. (NASB ©1995)

Numbers 34:13 So Moses commanded the sons of Israel, saying, "This is the land that you are to apportion by lot among you as a possession, which the LORD has commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes.

Joshua 13:7 "Now therefore, apportion this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh."

Joshua 14:3 For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half-tribe beyond the Jordan; but he did not give an inheritance to the Levites among them.

Ezekiel 42:16 He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds by the measuring reed.

Ezekiel 45:2 "Out of this there shall be for the holy place a square round about five hundred by five hundred cubits, and fifty cubits for its open space round about.

Ezekiel 47:21 "So you shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.

Ezekiel 48:8 "And beside the border of Judah, from the east side to the west side, shall be the allotment which you shall set apart, 25,000 cubits in width, and in length like one of the portions, from the east side to the west side; and the sanctuary shall be in the middle of it.

Ezekiel 48:9 "The allotment that you shall set apart to the LORD shall be 25,000 cubits in length and 10,000 in width.

Ezekiel 48:29 "This is the land which you shall divide by lot to the tribes of Israel for an inheritance, and these are their several portions," declares the Lord GOD.

Zechariah 14:20 In that day there will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, "HOLY TO THE LORD." And the cooking pots in the LORD'S house will be like the bowls before the altar.

Zechariah 14:21 Every cooking pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the LORD of hosts; and all who sacrifice will come and take of them and boil in them. And there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts in that day. (NASB ©1995)


Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer an oblation unto the LORD, an holy portion of the land: the length shall be the length of five and twenty thousand reeds, and the breadth shall be ten thousand. This shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about.

an holy portion [heb] holiness Zec 14:20,21

the length That our translators rightly added the word {reeds}, is evident from the length and breadth of the sanctuary being exactly the same as before, (comp. ver 2 with ch 42:16-19) Estimating the reed at 3:5 yards, this holy oblation would constitute a square of nearly fifty miles on every side. From the north side a portion or nearly twenty miles in length, and nearly fifty in length, was appointed for the priests; and in the midst of this portion, the area of the sanctuary, about a mile square, to be enclosed by a wall, (ver 1,2) Next to this, on the south, was the Levites' portion, of the same dimensions as that of the priests' (ver 5) and south of this was portion for the city, of the same length as those of the priests and Levites, but only half the width (ver 6) These three formed the square of 25,000 reeds, or nearly fifty miles; and that set apart for the prince, the breadth of which is not mentioned, extended in length from north to south, along the east and west sides of the square. As Canaan would not admit of so large a portion for the sanctuary, etc. this was no doubt intended to the intimate the large extent of the church in the glorious times predicted.
