  1  The east gate assigned only to the prince.
 4  The priests reproved for polluting the sanctuary.
 9  Idolaters incapable of the priests office.
15  The sons of Zadok are accepted thereto.
17  Ordinances for the priests.


VERSE 1
- the outward.
  So called in opposition to the temple itself, which was the
  inner sanctuary.

   * Eze 40:6,17; 42:14 2Ch 4:9; 20:5; 33:5 Ac 21:28-30
- looketh.
   * Eze 43:1,4; 46:1


VERSE 2 
 - because.
   * Eze 43:2-4 Ex 24:10 Isa 6:1-5


VERSE 3 
 - for.
   * Eze 46:2,8 2Ch 23:13; 34:31
- the prince.
  It is probable that the prince mentioned here and elsewhere,
  does not mean the Messiah, but the ruler of the Jewish nation
  for the time being.  For it is not only directed where he
  should sit in the temple, and eat his portion of the
  sacrifices, and when and how he should go out; but it is also
  ordered (ch. 22 45:22,) that at the passover he shall offer a
  bullock, a sin offering for himself and the people; and to
  guard him against any temptation of oppressing the people, he
  had a provision of land allotted to him, (ch. 8 45:8,) out of
  which he is to give an inheritance for his sons, (ch. 18 46:18.)
  These appear plainly to be political rules for common
  princes, and for a succession of them; but as no such rules
  were observed under the second temple, the fulfilment of it
  must still be future.

   * Eze 34:24; 37:25 Zec 6:12,13
- to eat.
   * Ge 31:54 Ex 24:9-11 De 12:7,17,18 Isa 23:18; 62:9 1Co 10:18-33
   * Re 3:20
- he shall enter.
   * Eze 40:9; 46:2,8-10


VERSE 4 
 - the way.
   * Eze 40:20,40
- the glory.
   * Eze 3:23; 10:4,18,19; 11:22,23; 43:4,5 Isa 6:3,4 Hag 2:7 Mal 3:1
- and I fell.
   * Eze 1:28; 43:3 Ge 17:3 Nu 16:42-45 Ps 89:7 Re 1:17


VERSE 5 
 - mark well.  Heb. set thine heart.
   * Eze 40:4 Ex 9:21 *marg:
   * De 32:46 1Ch 22:19 2Ch 11:16 Pr 24:32 *marg:
   * Da 10:12
- concerning.
   * Eze 43:10,11 De 12:32 Mt 28:20
- and mark well.
   * Ps 119:4
- the entering.
   * Ps 96:8,9 Ac 8:37


VERSE 6 
 - thou shalt say.
   * Eze 2:5-8; 3:9,26,27
- let it suffice.
   * Eze 45:9 1Pe 4:3


VERSE 7 
 - ye have brought.
   * :9; 7:20; 22:26; 43:7,8 Le 22:25 Ac 21:28
- strangers.  Heb. children of a stranger.
   * Isa 56:6,7
- uncircumcised in heart.
  The introduction of uncircumcised persons to eat of the peace
  offerings and oblations, would have been a gross violation of
  the Mosaic law; but, as there was no law to exclude "the
  uncircumcised of heart," who were circumcised and ritually
  clean, this seems to point out a new and different
  constitution.

   * Le 26:41 De 10:16; 30:6 Jer 4:4; 9:26 Ac 7:51 Ro 2:28,29
   * Col 2:11-13
- when.
   * Le 3:16; 21:6,8,17,21; 22:25 Mal 1:7,12-14 Joh 6:52-58
- the fat.
   * Le 3:13-17; 17:11
- broken.
   * Ge 17:14 Le 26:15 De 31:16,20 Isa 24:5 Jer 11:10; 31:32
   * Heb 8:9


VERSE 8 
 - ye have not.
   * Le 22:2-33 Nu 18:3-5 Ac 7:53 1Ti 6:13 2Ti 4:1
- charge.  or, ward, or ordinance, and so ver.
   * :14,16; 40:45,46 1Ch 23:32 Ezr 8:24-30

VERSE 9
    * :7 Ps 50:16; 93:5 Joe 3:17 Zec 14:21 Mr 16:16 Joh 3:3-5
   * Tit 1:5-9


VERSE 10 
 - the Levites.
   * :15; 22:26; 48:11 2Ki 23:8,9 2Ch 29:4,5 Ne 9:34 Jer 23:11
   * Zep 3:4 1Ti 5:22
- bear.
   * Ge 4:13 Le 19:8 Nu 5:31 Ps 38:4 Isa 53:11


VERSE 11 
 - they shall be.
  As few, if any, of those who, before the captivity, had been
  guilty in these respects, lived to witness the restoration of
  the temple service; and as it does not appear that their
  descendants were thus degraded for the idolatry of their
  ancestors; it is probable that a thorough reformation of the
  whole church, or the prevalence of pure religion among the
  converted Jews, is here predicted.

- having charge.
   * :14; 40:45 1Ch 26:1-19
- shall slay.
   * 2Ch 29:34; 30:17; 35:10,11
- and they.
   * Nu 16:9; 18:6


VERSE 12 
 - they ministered.
   * 1Sa 2:29,30 2Ki 16:10-16 Isa 9:16 Ho 4:6; 5:1 Mal 2:8,9
- caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquity.  Heb. were
  for a stumbling-block of iniquity unto, etc.
   * Eze 14:3,4
- therefore.
   * Eze 20:6,15,23,28 De 32:40-42 Ps 106:26 Am 8:7 Re 10:5,6
- and they shall.
   * :10,13


VERSE 13 
 - they shall not.
   * Nu 18:3 2Ki 23:9
- bear.
   * Eze 32:20; 36:7

VERSE 14
    * Nu 18:4 1Ch 23:28-32


VERSE 15 
 - the sons.
   * Eze 40:46; 43:19; 48:11 1Sa 2:35 1Ki 2:35 1Ti 3:3-10 2Ti 2:2
   * Re 2:1,8,12,18; 3:1,7,14,22
- when.
   * :10
- they shall stand.
   * De 10:8 Zec 3:1-7
- the fat.
   * :7 Le 3:16,17
- the blood.
   * Le 17:5,6


VERSE 16 
 - They shall enter.
   * Re 1:6
- to my table.
  To place the shew-bread there.  It is observable, that the
  table in the sanctuary is mentioned rather than the altar of
  incense; perhaps intimating the change in the external
  institutions of Divine worship which should take place before
  the accomplishment of the prophecy.  It is not easy to
  determine, whether any external regulations, with respect to
  Divine ordinances, answerable to these predictions, will be
  made among the converted Jews, when reinstated in their own
  land, or not.

   * Eze 41:22 Mal 1:7,12
- keep.
   * Nu 18:7,8 De 33:8-10


VERSE 17 
 - they shall.
   * Ex 28:39,40,43; 39:27-29 Le 16:4 Re 4:4; 19:8


VERSE 18 
 - bonnets.
   * Ex 28:40,41; 39:28 1Co 11:4-10
- linen breeches.
   * Ex 28:42,43 1Co 14:40
- with anything that causeth sweat.  or, in sweating places.
  Heb. in, or with sweat.


VERSE 19 
 - they shall put.
   * Eze 42:13,14 Le 6:10,11
- sanctify.
   * Eze 46:20 Ex 29:37; 30:29 Le 6:27 Mt 23:17-19 1Co 3:5,6


VERSE 20 
 - shave.
   * Le 21:5-24 De 14:1
- nor suffer.
   * Nu 6:5 1Co 11:14

VERSE 21
    * Le 10:9 Lu 1:15 1Ti 3:8; 5:23 Tit 1:7,8


VERSE 22 
 - Neither.
  This was prohibited only to the high priest under the law;
  but is here extended to all the priests, perhaps to intimate
  the superior sanctity of the times to which it refers.

- a widow.
   * Le 21:7,13,14 1Ti 3:2,4,5,11,12 Tit 1:6
- put away.  Heb. thrust forth.
   * De 24:1-4
- that had a priest before.  Heb. from a priest.

VERSE 23
    * Eze 22:26 Le 10:10,11 De 33:10 Ho 4:6 Mic 3:9-11 Zep 3:4
   * Hag 2:11-13 Mal 2:6-9 2Ti 2:24,25 Tit 1:9-11


VERSE 24 
 - in controversy.
  This seems to intimate, that controversies, in the period
  predicted, will be generally decided by arbitration,
  according to the law of God; and not by litigations before
  human tribunals, according to the laws of man.

   * De 17:8-13 1Ch 23:4 2Ch 19:8-10 Ezr 2:63
- they shall keep.
   * 1Ti 3:15
- in all.
   * Le 23:1-44 Nu 28:1-40 29:40 Ne 8:1-18
- and they shall hallow.
   * Eze 22:26 Isa 58:13,14
