Zechariah 2:2
To measure - To take the exact dimensions of it, that it may answer God's promise, and be capable to receive its inhabitants. Jerusalem - The city which was to be built hereafter.
Vision of the Measuring Line
1 Then I raised my eyes and looked, and behold, aa man with a measuring line in his hand.
2 So I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, a“To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its width and what is its length.”
3 And there was the angel who talked with me, going out; and another angel was coming out to meet him,
4 who said to him, “Run, speak to this young man, saying: a‘Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.
5 For I,’ says the Lord, ‘will be aa wall of fire all around her, band I will be the glory in her midst.’ ”
Future Joy of Zion and Many Nations
6 “Up, up! Flee afrom the land of the north,” says the Lord; “for I have bspread you abroad like the four winds of heaven,” says the Lord.
7 “Up, Zion! aEscape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.”
