107 -Holy Mountain Jerusalem's Gates

Many have tried to divide the Land of Israel and God will judge them for that (Joel 3:1-3)/ The term Terumah means separation or setting aside. We have already examined this as the Holy Mountain of the Messianic Kingdom. In this section of Scripture it is more finely defined with its borders being measured. Now the Lord let’s Ezekiel know that it will be situated just to the south of the property He has deeded to the tribe of Judah. The Terumah will be situated as a holy dividing line between the seven northern tribes and the five southern tribes. The Terumah is to be fifty miles square. This northern section will be twenty miles by fifty miles and will be inhabited by priests. In the center of the northern section near the border with Judah the one square mile Temple will situated. The priests who occupy the area around the Temple are the descendants of Zadok.
