The Lord’s Portion of the Land
45:1“ ‘When you allot the land as an inheritance, you will offer an allotment1 to the Lord, a holy portion from the land; the length will be eight and a quarter miles2 and the width three and one-third miles.3 This entire area will be holy.4
Footnotes
- 1 Heb “a contribution.”
- 2 Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers). The measuring units here are the Hebrew “long” cubit, consisting of a cubit (about 18 inches or 45 cm) and a handbreadth (about 3 inches or 7.5 cm), for a total of 21 inches (52.5 cm). Because modern readers are not familiar with the cubit as a unit of measurement, and due to the additional complication of the “long” cubit as opposed to the regular cubit, all measurements have been converted to American standard miles (one mile = 5,280 feet), with the Hebrew measurements and the metric equivalents given in the notes.
- 3 The reads “twenty thousand cubits.” Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers).
- 4 Heb “holy it is in all its territory round about.”
