“And the five and twenty thousand of length, and the ten thousand of breadth, shall also the Levites, the ministers of the house, have for themselves, for a possession for twenty chambers.”
Another section, twenty-five thousand cubits long and ten thousand cubits wide, shall be for the Levites who minister in the house; it shall be theirs as a possession, cities for them to live in'—allocating the southern portion of the holy district to the non-priestly Levites and establishing cities for their habitation. The equivalent dimensions to the priestly section (25,000 x 10,000) indicate balanced allocation. The specification of cities suggests organized urban development. This verse designates the Levitical portion.
