Outside Dimensions of the Temple Complex
15 When he finished measuring inside the temple complex, he led me out by way of the gate that faced east and measured all around the complex.(A)
16 He measured the east side with a measuring rod;
it was 875 feet[a] by the measuring rod.[b]
17 He[c] measured the north side;
it was 875 feet[d] by the measuring rod.[e]
18 He[f] measured the south side;
it was 875 feet[g] by the measuring rod.[h]
19 Then he turned to the west side
and measured 875 feet[i] by the measuring rod.[j]
20 He measured the temple complex on all four sides. It had a wall all around it,(B) 875 feet long and 875 feet(C) wide, to separate the holy from the common.(D)

Ezekiel 42:15-20
Common English Bible
15 When he finished making the interior measurements of the temple, he led me out toward the east gate, and he measured all the way around. 16 He used the same measuring rod on all four sides. He measured the east side, seven hundred fifty feet; 17 the north side, seven hundred fifty feet; and 18 the south side, seven hundred fifty feet. 19 He turned to the west side, seven hundred fifty feet. 20 On all four sides he measured the wall all the way around. Its length was seven hundred fifty feet, and its width seven hundred fifty feet. So he made a division between the holy and the ordinary.
