Ezekiel 46:8 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 46:8

And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of
the porch of that gate (See Gill on Ezekiel 46:2); and he shall go forth by the way thereof;
the same way he came in, he shall go out; not so the people; and, to introduce the manner of their going in and out, this is repeated concerning the prince.

Ezekiel 46:8 In-Context

6 For the day of the new moon, the offering will be a flawless young bull from the herd, six lambs, and a flawless ram,

7 and he will provide a grain offering of one ephah each for the bull and the ram, and for the lambs as much as he likes, with one hin of oil for each ephah.

8 When the prince enters, he comes in by way of the porch of the gate and goes out in the same direction.

9 When the people of the land come into the LORD's presence for the festivals, those who enter through the North Gate to worship should go out through the south, and those who come in through the South Gate should go out through the North Gate. They shouldn't turn around and go out the same way they came in. Instead, they should go out the opposite gate.

10 The prince should accompany them: when they come in, he comes in, and when they go out, he goes out.
