Ezekiel 40:5
And lo! a wall withoutforth, in the compass of the house of the Lord on each side; and in the hand of the man was a reed of measure of six cubits and a span, that is, an hand-breadth; and he meted the breadth of the building with one reed, and the highness by one reed.This verse in the real world
