Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary-19 Verses 16-19. He measured the east-north-south-west side] Each of which was five hundred reeds: and, as the building was square, the area must have been nearly thirteen thousand paces. No wonder this was called a city. See chap. xl. 2.
Matthew Henry Commentary
After Ezekiel had surveyed the temple of God, he had a vision of the glory of God. When Christ crucified, and the things freely given to u of God, through Him, are shown to us by the Holy Ghost, they make u ashamed for our sins. This frame of mind prepares us for fulle discoveries of the mysteries of redeeming love; and the whole of the Scriptures should be opened and applied, that men may see their sins and repent of them. We are not now to offer any atoning sacrifices, for by one offering Christ has perfected for ever those that ar sanctified, Heb. 10:14; but the sprinkling of his blood is needful in all our approaches to God the Father. Our best services can be accepte only as sprinkled with the blood which cleanses from all sin __________________________________________________________________
