1 The vision of the holy waters.
6 The virtue of them.
13 The borders of the land.
22 The division of it by lot.
VERSE 1
- the door.
* Eze 41:2,23-26
- waters issued.
Solomon's temple and the second temple were doubtless well
supplied with water, probably conveyed there by means of
pipes; but these waters flowed from the temple, not as a
common sewer, but as a fertilizing river. A fountain
producing abundance of water was not in the temple, and could
not be there on the top of such a hill; and consequently
these waters, as well as those spoken of by Joel and
Zechariah, must be understood figuratively and typically.
These waters doubtless were an emblem of the "gospel preached
with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven;" and their gradual
rise beautifully represents it progress, from small
beginnings to an immensely large increase; and the latter
part of the representation may relate to the times when it
shall fill the earth, and produce the most extensive and
important effects on the state of making in every nation.

VERSE 17
- the border from.
The Holy Land, as here described, extended from about 31ø to
35ø N. lat. and from 34ø to 37ø E. long.; being bounded on
the north by a line drawn from the Mediterranean to Hamath;
on the east by Damascus, Hauran, Gilead, and the land of
Israel east of Jordan, unto the south of the Dead sea; on the
south by Tamar and Kadesh, unto the river of Rhinocorura; and
on the west by the Mediterranean sea, from the same point
northward "till a man came over against Hamath;" and its
length from north to south would be about 280 miles, and its
breadth about 150 miles. The ten tribes, as well as Judah
and Benjamin, were to be admitted to a full share in this
inheritance, which seems to imply, that the future
restoration to the promised land is predicted; while the
admission of strangers who sojourned in the land to a share
in the inheritance, as if native Israelites, plainly
intimates the calling of the Gentiles into the church, and
their joint inheritance of its privileges, and of the
heavenly felicity.
