Ezekiel 45:1-6

If there were no other evidence but what those six verses contain, in proof, that somewhat of an higher nature, and design, than any event which ever yet took place, in the Jewish history, in the extent of their city and temple is intended, this passage would be sufficient. After the captivity in Babylon was ended, and the people returned to their home, never did they possess territories like what are here described. And though the second temple did indeed, in point of glory, possess by the Lord Jesus's presence, infinitely more than the first, yet, what is here said of extent and greatness, refers to a greater glory in the Church, in point of multitude, than hath yet been seen. Hence it should seem to follow, that the Prophet is here taught to look forward to the faith and expectations of that blessed period of the Church, which is to distinguish the latter day glory; when a little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation, Isaiah 60:22.
