A section of this land, measuring 875 feet by 875 feet,[a] will be set aside for the Temple. An additional strip of land 87 1⁄2 feet[b] wide is to be left empty all around it. Within the larger sacred area, measure out a portion of land 8 1⁄3 miles long and 3 1⁄3 miles wide.[c] Within it the sanctuary of the Most Holy Place will be located. This area will be holy, set aside for the priests who minister to the Lord in the sanctuary. They will use it for their homes, and my Temple will be located within it.
