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 - Ezekiel 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 - 45:8 out of which he is to give an inheritance for his sons - 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. 34:24, 37:25; Zechariah 6:12, 6:13to eatGenesis 31:54; Exodus 24:9-11; Deuteronomy 12:7, 12:17, 12:18; Isaiah 23:18, 62:9; 1 Corinthians 10:18-33; Revelation 3:20he shall enterEzekiel 40:9, 46:2, 46:8-10Reciprocal1 Kings 10:5 - cupbearers; 2 Kings 11:5 - the watch; 1 Chronicles 9:18 - the king's; 2 Chronicles 9:4 - ascent; 23:5 - the king's house; Ezekiel 46:12 - open himVerse 4the wayEzekiel 40:20, 40:40the glory3:23, 10:4, 10:18, 10:19, 11:22, 11:23, 43:4, 43:5; Isaiah 6:3, 6:4; Haggai 2:7; Malachi 3:1and I fellEzekiel 1:28, 43:3; Genesis 17:3; Numbers 16:42-45; Psalm 89:7; Revelation 1:17Reciprocal1 Kings 8:11 - for the glory; 2 Chronicles 7:1 - the glory; Ezekiel 8:14 - toward; 40:35 - to the; 46:19 - the entry; 47:2 - northward; Revelation 14:1 - I lookedVerse 5mark wellHeb. set thine heart, Ezekiel 40:4; Exodus 9:21 *marg.
