Bible Chapter Summary
Ezekiel 46 Summary
The Prince's Worship and Daily Offerings
The east gate shall be shut six working days but opened on the sabbath and new moons, when the prince enters to worship. The prince and people shall offer burnt offerings and peace offerings at appointed times. Daily a lamb without blemish shall be offered as a perpetual burnt offering, with meat offering and oil. The prince may not take the people's inheritance but must give his sons their inheritance from his own possession, and boiling places are established where priests prepare sacrifices for the people.
