Ezekiel 48:33 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 33 And at the south side four thousand and five hundred measures,
&c.] The south side of the city measured just the same as the north and east sides did: and three gates;
were on that side, as on the others: one gate of Simeon, one gate of Issachar, one gate of Zebulun;
at which these tribes entered, or those they represent.
