The square, with its equal sides and right angles, often symbolizes stability, order, and perfection, reflecting God's nature and His creation's intended harmony. Geometric and Architectural Significance The square is notably present in the construction and design of sacred spaces. In the description of the New Jerusalem, the heavenly city is depicted with a square layout. <a href="/revelation/21-16.htm">Revelation 21:16</a> states, "The city lies foursquare, with its length the same as its width." This perfect square symbolizes the completeness and divine order of God's eternal kingdom, emphasizing the perfection and symmetry of the heavenly realm. In the construction of the Tabernacle and later the Temple, the use of squares and right angles was integral to the design, ensuring structural stability and reflecting divine order. The altar of burnt offering, for instance, was square in shape, as described in <a href="/exodus/27.htm">Exodus 27:1</a> : "You are to construct the altar of acacia wood, five cubits long and five cubits wide; the altar is to be square, and three cubits high." Symbolic and Ritualistic Use The square also holds symbolic significance in biblical rituals and practices. The breastpiece of judgment worn by the High Priest was square, as detailed in <a href="/exodus/28-16.htm">Exodus 28:16</a> : "It is to be square when folded over, a span long and a span wide." This square breastpiece, adorned with twelve stones representing the twelve tribes of Israel, signifies the comprehensive and equitable judgment of God, as well as the unity and equality of His people. Moral and Ethical Implications In a broader moral and ethical sense, the square can be seen as a metaphor for righteousness and integrity. Just as a square is even and balanced, so too are the lives of those who walk in accordance with God's commandments. The square's association with fairness and justice is reflected in biblical teachings that emphasize honest dealings and equitable treatment of others. Cultural and Historical Context In the ancient Near East, the square was a common architectural and artistic motif, often used in city planning and construction. The Israelites, influenced by surrounding cultures yet distinct in their covenantal relationship with God, incorporated the square into their religious and communal life, imbuing it with theological significance. Overall, the square in biblical literature and culture serves as a powerful symbol of divine order, justice, and the ideal of moral integrity, reflecting the character of God and His intentions for His creation.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
