Ezekiel 45:1-3

Living Bible

45 “When you divide the land among the tribes of Israel, you shall first give a section of it to the Lord as his holy portion. This piece shall be 8-1/3 miles long and 6-2/3 miles wide. It shall all be holy ground.

² “A section of this land, 875 feet square, shall be designated for the Temple. An additional 87-1/2-foot strip all around is to be left empty. ³ The Temple shall be built within the area which is 8-1/3 miles long and 3-1/3 miles wide.
