Ezekiel 45:1-3
Modern English Version
The Holy District
45 Moreover, 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 twenty-five thousand cubits,[a] and the width shall be twenty thousand.[b] It shall be holy throughout its territory all around. 2 Of this there shall be a square plot for the sanctuary, five hundred by five hundred cubits,[c] with fifty cubits[d] for an open space around it. 3 Of this measure you shall measure the length of twenty-five thousand cubits and the width of ten thousand cubits.[e] And in it shall be the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place.
