Ezekiel 48:15-17, 30-35

Ezekiel 48:15-17 NLT

“An additional strip of land 8-1/3 miles long by 1-2/3 miles wide, south of the sacred Temple area, will be allotted for public use—homes, pasturelands, and common lands, with a city at the center. The city will measure 1-1/2 miles on each side—north, south, east, and west. Open lands will surround the city for 150 yards in every direction.

Ezekiel 48:30-35 NLT

“These will be the exits to the city: On the north wall, which is 1-1/2 miles long, there will be three gates, each one named after a tribe of Israel. The first will be named for Reuben, the second for Judah, and the third for Levi. On the east wall, also 1-1/2 miles long, the gates will be named for Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan. The south wall, also 1-1/2 miles long, will have gates named for Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun. And on the west wall, also 1-1/2 miles long, the gates will be named for Gad, Asher, and Naphtali. “The distance around the entire city will be 6 miles. And from that day the name of the city will be ‘The LORD Is There.’”
