Ezekiel 40:5

And behold, there was a wall around the temple. The measuring rod that the man had in his hand was 6 cubits [a total of 3.1 meters] long, each cubit being a handbreadth [about 7-8 cm] longer than a regular cubit.
[Heavenly cubit
A regular (human) cubit was 44.5 cm long and corresponds to the length of the forearm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger, see Deut. 3:11. Here, a "heavenly cubit" is used, which is a hand's breadth (7-8 cm) longer, making the new long cubit 52 cm long. The total length of the measuring rod is then 3.1 meters. Most likely, all measurements in chapters 40-48 are measured with this longer heavenly cubit.
The Book of Revelation mentions the measurements of angels and humans (Rev 21:17), which may refer to these different measurements.] He measured the width of the wall, which was one cubit [3.1 meters wide], and the height, which was also one cubit [3.1 meters high].
