About Ezekiel 46: The Worship in the New Temple
Ezekiel received a vision of the new temple which would be built in Jerusalem, and in chapter 46, he describes the regulations for the worship that would take place there. The chapter details the gate through which the Prince would enter and exit during different times of worship and offerings to the Lord, the offerings that would be presented to God on different days, and the provision for the Prince to have a special area for his offering.
Commentary
This chapter emphasizes the need for orderliness and reverence in worship. It also reveals that worship and offering are to be done regularly, according to specific guidelines. The Prince, who was to be the ruler, was also to participate in worship, just like any other person. This chapter also provides a glimpse of the coming of Jesus Christ, who is the Prince of Peace, and the ultimate fulfillment of these prophecies. It is a reminder to us that God desires our worship to be done in spirit and truth, and that we should approach him with the reverence he deserves.
