the priest’s land

Ezekiel 48:8-14 (JDV)

Ezekiel 48:8 “Next to the territory of Judah, from the east side to the west, will be the portion you donate to Yahveh, 25,000 cubits wide, and as long as one of the tribal portions from the east side to the west. The sanctuary will be in the middle of it.
Ezekiel 48:9 “The special portion you donate to Yahveh will be 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide.
Ezekiel 48:10 This devoted donation will be set apart for the priests alone. It will be 25,000 cubits long on the northern side, 10,000 cubits wide on the western side, 10,000 cubits wide on the eastern side, and 25,000 cubits long on the southern side. Yahveh’s sanctuary will be in the middle of it.

The priest gets a portion of the land as well. That makes sense in God’s plan because the sanctuary in the middle of this land is to be glorified by the land that surrounds it.

Our lives are to glorify God as well. I am not talking about our “religious” lives, but all our lives. Like the priests, everything we do should glorify God.
