This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
twelve thousand furlongs - literally, “to twelve thousand stadii”: one thousand furlongs being the space between the several twelve gates. Bengel makes the length of each side of the city to be twelve thousand stadii. The stupendous height, length, and breadth being exactly alike, imply its faultless symmetry, transcending in glory all our most glowing conceptions.
