Reading for May 21st

Read Ezekiel 48.23-35
In verses 23-29 the southern tribes are listed from north to south as Benjamin,
Simeon, Issachar, Zebulun, and Gad.
In verses 30-35 there are three gates allotted to the tribes on each side of the square city.
The northern gates include Reuben, Judah, and Levi; the eastern gates include Joseph,
Benjamin, and Dan; the southern gates include Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun; and the

The name of the city if The LORD is There ("yhwh shammah") to signify the return of God's presence (see Isa 60.14; Jer 30.11).
