The Holy District
1 “Moreover, when you adivide the land by lot into inheritance, you shall bset apart a district for the Lord, a holy section of the land; its length shall be twenty-five thousand cubits, and the width ten thousand. It shall be holy throughout its territory all around.
2 Of this there shall be a square plot for the sanctuary, afive hundred by five hundred rods, with fifty cubits around it for an open space.
3 So this is the district you shall measure: twenty-five thousand cubits long and ten thousand wide; ain it shall be the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place.
4 It shall be aa holy section of the land, belonging to the priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who come near to minister to the Lord; it shall be a place for their houses and a holy place for the sanctuary.
5 aAn area twenty-five thousand cubits long and ten thousand wide shall belong to the Levites, the ministers of the temple; they shall have btwenty chambers as a possession.
