44:19. And when they shall go forth to the outward court to the people,
they shall put off their garments wherein they ministered, and lay them
up in the store chamber of the sanctuary, and they shall clothe
themselves with other garments: and they shall not sanctify the people
with their vestments.

Shall not sanctify the people with their vestments... By exposing them
to the danger of touching the sacred vestments, which none were to touch
but they that were sanctified.

44:20. Neither shall they shave their heads, nor wear long hair: but
they shall only poll their heads.

44:21. And no priest shall drink wine when he is to go into the inner
court.

44:22. Neither shall they take to wife a widow, nor one that is
divorced, but they shall take virgins of the seed of the house of
Israel: but they may take a widow also, that is, the widow of a priest.

44:23. And they shall teach my people the difference between holy and
profane, and shew them how to discern between clean and unclean.

44:24. And when there shall be a controversy, they shall stand in my
judgments, and shall judge: they shall keep my laws, and my ordinances
in all my solemnities, and sanctify my sabbaths.

44:25. And they shall come near no dead person, lest they be defiled,
only their father and mother, and son and daughter, and brother and
sister, that hath not had another husband: for whom they may become
unclean.

44:26. And after one is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him seven days.

44:27. And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, to the inner
court, to minister unto me in the sanctuary, he shall offer for his sin,
saith the Lord God.

44:28. And they shall have no inheritance, I am their inheritance:
neither shall you give them any possession in Israel, for I am their
possession.

44:29. They shall eat the victim both for sin and for trespass: and
every vowed thing in Israel shall be theirs.

30. And the firstfruits of all the firstborn, and all the libations of
all things that are offered, shall be the priest's: and you shall give
the firstfruits of your meats to the priest, that he may return a
blessing upon thy house.

44:31. The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself or
caught by a beast, whether it be fowl or cattle.

Ezechiel Chapter 45

Portions of land for the sanctuary, for the city, and for the prince.
Ordinances for the prince.

45:1. And when you shall begin to divide the land by lot, separate ye
firstfruits to the Lord, a portion of the land to be holy, in length
twenty-five thousand and in breadth ten thousand: it shall be holy in
all the borders thereof round about.

Twenty-five thousand... Viz., reeds or cubits.

45:2. And there shall be for the sanctuary on every side five hundred by
five hundred, foursquare round about: and fifty cubits for the suburbs
thereof round about.

45:3. And with this measure thou shalt measure the length of five and
twenty thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand, and in it shall be the
temple and the holy of holies.

45:4. The holy portion of the land shall be for the priests the
ministers of the sanctuary, who come near to the ministry of the Lord:
and it shall be a place for their houses, and for the holy place of the
sanctuary.

45:5. And five and twenty thousand of length, and ten thousand of
breadth shall be for the Levites, that minister in the house: they shall
possess twenty store chambers.
