Ezekiel 43 — John Thomas

Upon the top of the mountain

by John Thomas

With reference to Ezekiel 43:12—The Holy Oblation is to contain the Millennial Temple described by Ezekiel, which is to be in the midst of the Most Holy Portion of the Oblation, "upon the top of the mountain, the whole limit whereof is Most Holy" (43:12). The details are given in 45:1-8, which concludes with the remark, that "in the land shall be his (Messiah the Prince's) possession in Israel and my princes (who will then be the saints) shall no more oppress my people: and the rest of the land shall they give to the house of Israel according to their tribes."
The City, which will be square, will be 4,500 measures on each side, or 18,000 in circumference. Its twelve gates will open into suburbs of 250 measures broad; and to the east and west there will be areas of 10,000 measures each, making altogether "a profane place" of 25,000 measures from east to west, by 5,000 from north to south, which "shall be for the whole house of Israel:" and "the name of the city from that day shall be YAHWEH-SHAMMAH," because "He who shall be is there."
