Ezequiel 46:6

6 Mas el día de la nueva luna, un becerro, hijo de vaca, sin tacha, y seis corderos, y un carnero; deberán ser sin defecto.

Ezequiel 46:6 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 46:6

And in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock
without blemish
This is also different from the law of Moses, which required two young bullocks and a ram, and seven lambs, ( Numbers 28:11 ) , whereas here only one bullock: and six lambs, and a ram; they shall be without blemish;
and here Kimchi acknowledges again that this is a new thing to be done in future time. Some have observed, that the seven lambs under the law showed that perfection might be hoped for and expected; but, there being but six now, that this is not yet attained, nor will be till the saints get to heaven; though perfection is come by the priesthood of Christ, whose sacrifice is a perfect and complete one, and by which his people are perfected, and they are complete in him, yet they have no perfection in themselves.

Ezequiel 46:6 In-Context

4 Y el holocausto que el príncipe ofrecerá al SEÑOR el día del sábado, será seis corderos sin defecto, y un carnero sin tacha;

5 y por presente un efa de flor de harina con cada carnero; y con cada cordero un presente, don de su mano, y un hin de aceite con el efa.

6 Mas el día de la nueva luna, un becerro, hijo de vaca, sin tacha, y seis corderos, y un carnero; deberán ser sin defecto.

7 Y hará presente de un efa de flor de harina con el becerro, y otro efa con cada carnero; mas con los corderos, conforme a su facultad; y un hin de aceite con cada efa.

8 Y cuando el príncipe entrare, entrará por el camino del portal de la puerta; y por el mismo camino saldrá.
