Yechezkel 48:19 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 48:19

And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the
tribes of Israel.
] Whether they be civil magistrates, or ministers of the word, they shall be of Israel, and be Israelites indeed; and shall be taken out of the several tribes; some out of one tribe, and some out of another; all shall have the honour, as well as the labour, of serving the church and interest of Christ; yea, all true Israelites shall contribute as much as in them lies to the service of it.
