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.
