1 Ordinances for the prince in his worship;
9 and for the people.
16 An order for the prince's inheritance.
19 The courts for boiling and baking.
VERSE 1
- Thus saith.
Whether the rules for public worship here laid down were
designed to be observed in those things wherein they differed
from the law of Moses, in the ministrations of the second
temple, is not certain. In the latter history of the Jewish
church, the law of Moses only was followed, except in the
corruption of following the traditions of the fathers.
- The gate.
The prophet had before observed that the east gate of the
outer court was shut, and was told that it must only be
opened for the prince; and now he is informed that the gate
of the inner court on the east was also shut, and is to be
opened only on the sabbath and new moons, till the evening.
- shall be shut.
* Eze 44:1,2
- six working.
* Ge 3:19 Ex 20:9 Lu 13:14
- on the sabbath.
* Eze 45:17 Isa 66:23 Heb 4:9,10
VERSE 2
- the porch.
* Joh 10:1-3
- by the post.
* :8; 44:3 2Ch 23:13; 34:31
- the priests.
* Col 1:28
- prepare.
Or, "offer," as the word {ƒsah} frequently denotes. The
whole of this seems to intimate the constant, reverential,
and exemplary attendance of kings on the pure ordinances of
religion, in the approaching flourishing days of the church.
- he shall worship.
* 1Ki 8:22,23 1Ch 17:16; 29:10-12 2Ch 6:13; 29:29 Mt 26:39
* Heb 5:7,8
- but the gate.
* :12
VERSE 3
* Lu 1:10 Joh 10:9 Heb 10:19-22
VERSE 4
- the burnt.
The proportions of the burnt offerings, and also of the meat
and drink offerings, are very different here form those
prescribed in the Mosaic law. The meat offering, under the
law, was only three tenths of an {ephah} to a bullock, two
tenths for a ram, and one tenth for a lamb, with the fourth
part of a {hin} of oil.
* Eze 45:17 Nu 28:9,10
VERSE 5
- the meat.
* :7,11,12; 45:24 Nu 28:12
- as he shall be able to give. Heb. the gift of his hand.
* Le 14:21 Nu 6:21 De 16:17
VERSE 6
* :6
VERSE 7
VERSE 8
- he shall go.
* :2; 44:1-3 Col 1:18
VERSE 9
- when the people.
This may intimate, that every thing should be regulated, in
divine worship, so as to prevent disorder and interruption,
and also that men should go forward and make progress in
religion, and not turn their backs upon God.
- come before.
* Ex 23:14-17; 34:23 De 16:16 Ps 84:7 Mal 4:4
- he that entereth in.
* Eze 1:12,17 Php 3:13,14 Heb 10:38 2Pe 2:20,21

* Ezr 1:4; 3:5; 6:17 Ro 12:1 Eph 5:2
- open him.
* :1,2,8; 44:3
- as he did.
* Eze 45:17
VERSE 13
- Thou shalt daily.
It is observable, that there is nothing said about the
evening sacrifice, or the additional lamb, morning and
evening, on the sabbath, which makes an important difference
between this and the old laws; and is probably an intimation
of that change in the external forms of religion which the
coming of the Messiah should introduce.
* Ex 29:38-42 Nu 28:3-8,10 Da 8:11-13 Joh 1:29 1Pe 1:19,20
* Re 13:8
- of the first year. Heb. a son of his year.

- every morning. Heb. morning by morning.
* Ps 92:2 Isa 50:4
VERSE 14
- the sixth.
* Nu 28:5
VERSE 15

* Heb 7:27; 9:26; 10:1-10
VERSE 16
- If the prince.
* Ge 25:5,6 2Ch 21:3 Ps 37:18 Mt 25:34 Lu 10:42 Joh 8:35,36
* Ro 8:15-17,29-32 Ga 4:7
VERSE 17
- to the year.
That is, the year of Jubilee, called the year of liberty,
because there was then a general release: all servants had
their liberty; and all alienated estates returned to their
former owners.
* Le 25:10 Mt 25:14-29 Lu 19:25,26 Ga 4:30,31
VERSE 18

This entry was at the west side of the north gate of the
inner court.
* Eze 40:44-46; 42:9 *(see ch: 4 44:4, 5:)
- a place.
This place was at the west corners of the inner court, or
court of the priests; where they prepared the most holy
things, the trespass and sin offering, which none but the
priests might eat; that they might not "bear them out into
the utter court, to sanctify the people," that is, by
touching them incapacitate them from discharging their
ordinary occupations.
VERSE 20
- boil the trespass.
* Eze 44:29 1Sa 2:13-15 2Ch 35:13
- bake the meat.

- in every corner of the court there was a court. Heb. a court
in the corner of a court; and a court in a corner of a court.
* :21
VERSE 22
- courts.
These courts in the corners of the outer court, or court of
the people, appear to have been a kind of uncovered
apartments, surrounded with little chambers for the cooks,
and used for dressing the peace offerings of the people. On
these their families and friends feasted; and portions were
sent to the poor, the widow, and the orphan; and thus the
spirit of devotion preserved the spirit of mercy, charity,
and benevolence, in the land.
- joined. or, made with chimneys. corners. Heb. cornered.
