Ezekiel 48:21-35
Ezekiel 48:21-35 TPT
“This 25,000-cubit square will contain the holy portion of the priests, the Levites’ land, and the land where the city will be. It will be in the middle of the prince’s land, and he will have any land remaining on either side of the sacred portion and of the property of the city. The prince will have two sections, one stretching from the edge of this area to the eastern border of the country, the other stretching from the other edge of this area to the western border. These two sections of land belonging to the prince will run alongside the borders of the territories of Judah and Benjamin. It will lie between those two territories south of Judah and north of Benjamin.” “As regards the remaining tribes south of this sacred section, each tribe is to receive one portion of land that extends from the eastern boundary west to the Mediterranean Sea: Benjamin Simeon Issachar Zebulun Gad. “And adjoining the territory of Gad, on the south side, the border will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, following the dry riverbed to the Mediterranean Sea. This is how you must distribute the land to the tribes of Israel as their inheritance. These are to be their portions. I, Lord YAHWEH, have spoken.” “Here are the twelve exits from the city. Each gate is to be named after a tribe of Israel. Each of the four walls of the city will extend for 4,500 cubits and has three gates in it. The three gates on the north side are to be named Reuben, Judah, and Levi. The three gates on the east side are to be named Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan. The three gates on the south side are to be named Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun. The three gates on the west side are to be named Gad, Asher, and Naphtali. The total perimeter of the city is to be 18,000 cubits. “From that time on the city will be called YAHWEH-Lives-There!”
