Ezekiel 42:15-20

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁵ In this way the man finished the measurements of the interior of the temple complex. Then he led me out through the gate on the east side of the temple complex and measured the temple area all the way around. ¹⁶ He measured the east side using the measuring rod. It measured five hundred cubits,^[a] using canes, that is, the measuring rod. ¹⁷ Then he turned and measured the north side. It was five hundred cubits, using canes, that is, the measuring rod. ¹⁸ Then he turned and measured the south side. It was five hundred cubits, using canes, that is, the measuring rod. ¹⁹ He turned to the west side and measured again. It also was five hundred cubits, using canes, that is, the measuring rod. ²⁰ Thus he measured the temple area on all four sides. It had a wall all the way around it. It was five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits wide, in order to separate the holy from the common.
