Ezekiel 46:10

8 ^aWhen the prince enters, he shall go in by way of the vestibule of the gateway, and go out the same way.

9 “But when the people of the land ^acome before the Lord on the appointed feast days, whoever enters by way of the north ^bgate to worship shall go out by way of the south gate; and whoever enters by way of the south gate shall go out by way of the north gate. He shall not return by way of the gate through which he came, but shall go out through the opposite gate.

10 The prince shall then be in their midst. When they go in, he shall go in; and when they go out, he shall go out.

11 At the festivals and the appointed feast days ^athe grain offering shall be an ephah for a bull, an ephah for a ram, as much as he wants to give for the lambs, and a hin of oil with every ephah.

12 “Now when the prince makes a voluntary burnt offering or voluntary peace offering to the Lord, the gate that faces toward the east ^ashall then be opened for him; and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings as he did on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and after he goes out the gate shall be shut.
