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 On the first day of the month, the burnt offering must be one young bull, six lambs, and one ram--all animals that have no defects.
7 With each young bull and each ram the offering must include a half-bushel of grain, and with each lamb the offering must be whatever the prince wants to bring. One gallon of olive oil must be offered with each half-bushel of grain.
8 When the prince enters, he must enter through the entrance hall of the gateway. He must enter and leave the same way.
9 "'The people will enter the LORD's presence at the time of the appointed festivals. Those entering through the north gate to worship must leave through the south gate. Those entering through the south gate must leave through the north gate. They must not leave through the same gate they entered. They must leave through the opposite gate.
10 The prince must be among them. When they enter, he must enter. When they leave, he must leave.
