Rujukan Talmud untuk Yehezkiel 48:35: Sukkah & Bava Batra

Hezekiah further stated in the name of R. Yirmiyah who said it in the name of R. Shimon b. Yohai: I have seen the sons of heaven and they are but few. If there be a thousand, I and my son are among them; if a hundred, I and my son are among them; and if only two, they are I and my son. Are they then so few? Did not Rava say, There is a row of 18,000 righteous men before the Holy One, blessed be He, for it is said, “It shall be eighteen thousand round about [and the name of the city from that day on shall be ‘The Lord Is There'” (Ezekiel 48:35)? This is no difficulty: The former number refers to those who see Him through a bright speculum, the latter to those who do not see him through a bright speculum.

The righteous, as we said above. The Messiah, as it is written “…this is his name that he shall be called, The Lord is our righteousness.” (Jeremiah 23:6) Jerusalem, as it is written “All around it amounts to 18,000; and the name of the city from that day will be "The Lord is There."” (Ezekiel 48:35)
