It contained the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which were the golden urn (stamnos | στάμνος | nom sg fem) containing the manna, Aaron’s rod that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.
The city was laid out as a square, its length the same as its width. He measured the city with the measuring rod at twelve thousand stadia (stadiōn | σταδίων | gen pl neut), its length, width, and height being equal.
Then the winepress was trodden outside the city, and blood poured out from the winepress, rising to the height of horses’ bridles for a distance of about two hundred miles (stadiōn | σταδίων | gen pl masc).
When they had rowed about three or four miles (stadious | σταδίους | acc pl masc), they saw Jesus walking on the lake and approaching the boat, and they were terrified.
