Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the suburbs of the city shall be toward the north two hundred and fifty,.... That is, so many reeds: and
toward the south two hundred and fifty; which make five hundred; and these being added to four thousand five hundred, north and south, make five thousand:
and toward the east two hundred and fifty, and toward the west two hundred and fifty; which being added to four thousand five hundred, east and west, make five thousand; and so an equilateral square on each side, length and breadth.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The city being 4500 reeds square, 250 reeds are marked off north, south, east, west from the city land.
