Ezekiel 45:5 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 45:5

And the five and twenty thousand, of length, and ten thousand
of breadth
This seems to be another portion of the land, distinct from the former, though of the same measure; see ( Ezekiel 48:13 ) : shall also the Levites, the ministers of the house, have for
themselves;
separate from the priests, to whom they ministered, and were as numerous; or more numerous, than they; this is still designed to set forth the largeness of the church, and the great numbers of its members, who will all be accommodated and supplied with good things: for a possession for twenty chambers;
which some understand of twenty rows of chambers; by which may be meant particular congregated churches, as we have seen all along in this vision, erected for the better use and convenience of the saints in all places and parts of the world, where they are called.

Ezekiel 45:5 In-Context

3 "In the sacred area, measure off a large strip of land. It will be eight and a fourth miles long and three and a third miles wide. The temple will be in it. It will be the most holy place of all.
4 The large strip will be the sacred share of land for the priests. There they will serve in the temple. And they will approach me to serve me there. Their houses will be built on that land. The holy temple will also be located there.
5 "So the Levites will serve in the temple. They will have an area eight and a fourth miles long and three and a third miles wide. The towns they live in will be located there.
6 "Give the city an area one and two thirds miles wide and eight and a fourth miles long. It will be right next to the sacred area. It will belong to all of the people of Israel.
7 "The prince will have land on both sides of the sacred area and the city. Its border will run east and west along the land of one of the tribes.
