Ezekiel 40:5

And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, enclosing the entire complex of buildings, and in the Man's hand a measuring-reed of six cubits long by the cubit and an hand breadth, or about one rod, the length of the measuring-rod thus being greater than the one usually employed; so He measured the breadth of the building, that of the mason-work of the wall, one reed, or rod, and the height, one reed, a very strong piece of masonry.
