'Measuring' in the Bible

Joseph stored up a vast amount of grain, like the sand of the sea, until he stopped measuring it because it was impossible to measure.

You must not have in your house different measuring containers, a large and a small one.

You must have an accurate and correct stone weight and an accurate and correct measuring container, so that your life may be extended in the land the Lord your God is about to give you.

The foundation was made of large valuable stones, measuring either 15 feet or 12 feet.

They also took care of the bread that is displayed, the flour for offerings, the unleavened wafers, the round cakes, the mixing, and all the measuring.

Who set its measurements -- if you know -- or who stretched a measuring line across it?

I will make justice the measuring line, fairness the plumb line; hail will sweep away the unreliable refuge, the floodwaters will overwhelm the hiding place.

Owls and wild animals will live there, all kinds of wild birds will settle in it. The Lord will stretch out over her the measuring line of ruin and the plumb line of destruction.

When he brought me there, I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze, with a linen cord and a measuring stick in his hand. He was standing in the gateway.

I saw a wall all around the outside of the temple. In the man's hand was a measuring stick 10? feet long. He measured the thickness of the wall as 10? feet, and its height as 10? feet.

I saw that the temple had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers were a full measuring stick of 10? feet high.

Now when he had finished measuring the interior of the temple, he led me out by the gate which faces east and measured all around.

He measured the east side with the measuring stick as 875 feet by the measuring stick.

He measured the north side as 875 feet by the measuring stick.

He measured the south side as 875 feet by the measuring stick.

He turned to the west side and measured 875 feet by the measuring stick.

When the man went out toward the east with a measuring line in his hand, he measured 1,750 feet, and then he led me through water, which was ankle deep.

"'Therefore,' says the Lord, 'I have become compassionate toward Jerusalem and will rebuild my temple in it,' says the Lord who rules over all. 'Once more a surveyor's measuring line will be stretched out over Jerusalem.'

I looked again, and there was a man with a measuring line in his hand.

I asked, "What is it?" And he replied, "It is a basket for measuring grain that is moving away from here." Moreover, he said, "This is their 'eye' throughout all the earth."

Then a measuring rod like a staff was given to me, and I was told, "Get up and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and the ones who worship there.

The angel who spoke to me had a golden measuring rod with which to measure the city and its foundation stones and wall.

Now the city is laid out as a square, its length and width the same. He measured the city with the measuring rod at fourteen hundred miles (its length and width and height are equal).
