23 “And ^athey shall teach My people the difference between the holy and the unholy, and cause them to ^bdiscern between the unclean and the clean.

24 ^aIn controversy they shall stand as judges, and judge it according to My judgments. They shall keep My laws and My statutes in all My appointed meetings, ^band they shall hallow My Sabbaths.

25 “They shall not defile themselves by coming near a dead person. Only for father or mother, for son or daughter, for brother or unmarried sister may they defile themselves.

26 ^aAfter he is cleansed, they shall count seven days for him.

27 And on the day that he goes to the sanctuary to minister in the sanctuary, ^ahe must offer his sin offering ^bin the inner court,” says the Lord God.

Ezekiel 44:1-31

- This chapter contains ordinances relative to the true priests. The prince evidently means Christ, and the words in ver. 2 , may remind us that no other can enter heaven, the true sanctuary, as Christ did; namely, by virtue of his own excellency, and his personal holiness, righteousness, and strength. He who is the Brightness of Jehovah's glory entered by his own holiness; but that way is shut to the whole human race, and we all must enter as sinners, by faith in his blood, and by the power of his grace.
