Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| Such was the ideal form of the encampment in the wilderness: a form reproduced in the square court with which the temple was eventually surrounded, and in the vision of the heavenly city as seen by Ezekiel Eze 48:20, and by John (Rev 21:16; compare Rev 20:9). Thus the camp of God's earthly people was divinely ordered so as to set forth the completeness of His Church; and to illustrate by its whole arrangement, which was determined by the tabernacle in the center, both the dependance of all on God, and the access which all enjoyed to God. |
9 And [2532] they went up [305] on [1909] the breadth [4114] of the earth [1093], and [2532] compassed [2944] the camp [3925] of the saints [40] about [2944], and [2532] the beloved [25] city [4172]: and [2532] fire [4442] came down [2597] from [575] God [2316] out of [1537] heaven [3772], and [2532] devoured [2719] them [846].
16 And [2532] the city [4172] lieth [2749] foursquare [5068], and [2532] the length [3372] [846] is [2076] as large [5118] as [3745] [2532] the breadth [4114]: and [2532] he measured [3354] the city [4172] with the reed [2563] [1909], twelve [1427] thousand [5505] furlongs [4712]. The length [3372] and [2532] the breadth [4114] and [2532] the height [5311] of it [846] are [2076] equal [2470].
20 All the oblation [08641] shall be five [02568] and twenty [06242] thousand [0505] by five [02568] and twenty [06242] thousand [0505]: ye shall offer [07311] the holy [06944] oblation [08641] foursquare [07243], with the possession [0272] of the city [05892].
