sacred layers

Ezekiel 48:11-14 (JDV)

Ezekiel 48:11 It is for the consecrated priests, the sons of Zadok, who kept my charge and did not go astray as the Levites did when the Israelites went astray.
Ezekiel 48:12 It will be a special donation for them out of the sacred donation of the land, a most sacred place adjacent to the territory of the Levites.
Ezekiel 48:13 “Next to the territory of the priests, the Levites will have an area 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide. The total length will be 25,000 cubits and the width 10,000 cubits.
Ezekiel 48:14 They must not sell or exchange any of it, and they must not transfer this first part of the land, for it is devoted to Yahveh.

sacred layers

Next to the land given to the priests will be a land designated for the Levites, and this too is sacred. There are layers of sacred land that set this entire land apart as unique and special to God.

As people ap[proach the land, they should sense the difference. While all the planet is God’s, what belongs to us should demonstrate a sacredness that is recognizable.
