Ezekiel 40:23
And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits. And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits.
The setting is a vision of the temple in which a man with a measuring reed measures its buildings and details and records each measurement with precision. The gate of the inner court stands opposite the gates toward the north and toward the east, and the distance measured from gate to gate is a hundred cubits. The exactness of these measurements shows that the divine measure is exact and extends to every detail. The pattern of the temple thus teaches that the law of God is the standard by which life and character are measured.
