Ezekiel 42:16 (BSB)
Context Reading
14Once the priests have entered the holy area, they must not go out into the outer court until they have left behind the garments in which they minister, for these are holy. They are to put on other clothes before they approach the places that are for the people.” 15Now when the man had finished measuring the interior of the temple area, he led me out by the gate that faced east, and he measured the area all around: 16With a measuring rod he measured the east side to be five hundred cubits long. 17He measured the north side to be five hundred cubits long. 18He measured the south side to be five hundred cubits long.
