48:8 “Next to the border of Judah from the east side to the west will be the allotment you must set apart. It is to be eight and a quarter miles 1 wide, and the same length as one of the tribal portions, from the east side to the west; the sanctuary will be in the middle of it. 48:9 The allotment you set apart to the Lord will be eight and a quarter miles 2 in length and three and one-third miles 3 in width. 48:10 These will be the allotments for the holy portion: for the priests, toward the north eight and a quarter miles 4 in length, toward the west three and one-third miles 5 in width, toward the east three and one-third miles 6 in width, and toward the south eight and a quarter miles 7 in length; the sanctuary of the Lord will be in the middle.
