How far will the river from the throne room go in Ezekiel?

The river from the throne room in Jerusalem flows back to the Mediterranean and down to the Dead Sea, and may extend as far as the Persian Gulf. Ezekiel says the Dead Sea will contain every species of fish the Mediterranean has, becoming living water.

Les explains that Zechariah's prophecy says living waters will go out from Jerusalem, half toward the former sea (the Mediterranean) and half toward the hinder sea (the Dead Sea), in summer and winter. He then points to Ezekiel, where the river flows from the throne room in Jerusalem back to the Mediterranean and down to the Dead Sea. Les adds he thinks it will even go out to the Persian Gulf. Ezekiel says the Dead Sea will have every species of fish that the Mediterranean has, so it will no longer be saltwater but living water. This accompanies Christ's return to the Mount of Olives and His kingdom on earth.
