It shall be holy throughout its whole extent. 2 gSee ch. 42:16-20 Of this a square plot of 500 by 500 cubits shall be for the sanctuary, with fifty cubits forh[ch. 27:28; 48:15, 17]; See Lev. 25:34 an open space around it. 3 Andi[ver. 1] from this measured district you shall measure off a section 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 broad,jch. 48:10 in which shall be the sanctuary,kSee ch. 41:4 the Most Holy Place. 4 l[ch. 48:11, 12] It shall be the holy portion of the land.

It is to be his property in Israel. Andr[ch. 22:27; 46:18] my princes shall no more oppress my people, butsch. 47:13, 21; See ch. 48:1-7, 23-28 they shall let the house of Israel have the land according to their tribes.
9 Thus says the Lord God :tch. 44:6 Enough, O princes of Israel! Put away violence and oppression, and execute justice and righteousness. Ceaseu[ch. 46:18] your evictions of my people, declares the Lord God.

21 hSee Lev. 23:5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall celebrate the Feast of the Passover, and for seven days unleavened bread shall be eaten. 22 On that day the princei[ver. 17] shall provide for himself and all the people of the land a young bull for a sin offering. 23 And onjLev. 23:8 the seven days of the festival he shall provide as a burnt offering to the Lord seven young bulls and seven rams without blemish, on each of the seven days; andkNum. 28:15 a male goat daily for a sin offering. 24 Andlch. 46:5, 7 he shall provide asmSee Lev. 2:1 a grain offering an ephah for each bull, an ephah for each ram, and a hin of oil to each ephah. 25 nSee Lev. 23:34 In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month and for the seven days of the feast,oSee ver. 22-24 he shall make the same provision for sin offerings, burnt offerings, and grain offerings, and for the oil.
