Ezekiel 48:13 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 48:13

And over against the border of the priests
Next to their border, close to it, running parallel with it: the Levites shall have five and twenty thousand in length, and ten
thousand in breadth;
for accommodations for them; for chambers to lodge in, and other uses; all concerned in the house and worship of God shall be provided for with everything necessary and convenient for them; (See Gill on Ezekiel 45:5): all the length shall be five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten
thousand;
all the length of the land, both for the priests and Levites, should be five and twenty thousand reeds, and the breadth of the land for both ten thousand reeds: this is repeated for the certainty of it, and to prevent any mistake about it.

Ezekiel 48:13 In-Context

11 sacerdotibus sanctuarium erit de filiis Sadoc qui custodierunt caerimonias meas et non erraverunt cum errarent filii Israhel sicut erraverunt et Levitae

12 et erunt eis primitiae de primitiis terrae sanctum sanctorum iuxta terminum Levitarum

13 sed et Levitis similiter iuxta fines sacerdotum viginti quinque milia longitudinis et latitudinis decem milia omnis longitudo viginti et quinque milium et latitudo decem milium

14 et non venundabunt ex eo neque mutabunt nec transferentur primitiae terrae quia sanctificatae sunt Domino

15 quinque milia autem quae supersunt in latitudine per viginti quinque milia profana erunt urbis in habitaculum et in suburbana et erit civitas in medio eius
