Stretching from the wall of the towns a distance of a thousand cubits all round.
These towns are to be their living-places, with land round them for their cattle and their food and all their beasts,
The measure of this space of land is to be two thousand cubits outside the town on the east, and two thousand cubits on the south and on the west and on the north, the town being in the middle. This space will be the outskirts of their towns.
