Ezekiel 43:25

25 By seven days, thou shalt make (ready) a buck of goats for sin, each day; and they shall offer a calf of the drove, and a wether unwemmed of sheep. (For seven days, each day for a sin offering thou shalt offer a goat-buck, a calf from the herd, and a ram from the sheep, all of them without blemish, or without fault.)

Ezekiel 43:25 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 43:25

Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat for a
sin offering
By this it appears that the altar was seven days a consecrating and cleansing; and that on each day a goat was prepared and offered, typical of Christ, as before observed. Here Kimchi owns that this was not according to the order of Moses, or was done by those that came out of the captivity of Babylon; and is obliged to confess that there will be a change or an innovation in the order of sacrifices in time to come, or under the Messiah. They shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock
without blemish;
which, either one or all of them, should be offered up on each of the seven days; (See Gill on Ezekiel 43:23).

Ezekiel 43:25 In-Context

23 And when thou hast [ful]filled that cleansing, thou shalt offer a calf of the drove, which calf is without wem, and a wether without wem of the flock. (And when thou hast finished that cleansing, thou shalt offer a calf from the herd, which calf is without blemish, or without fault, and a ram without blemish from the flock.)
24 And thou shalt offer those in the sight of the Lord; and (the) priests shall put salt on those, and shall offer those into (a) burnt sacrifice to the Lord (and shall offer them for a burnt sacrifice to the Lord).
25 By seven days, thou shalt make (ready) a buck of goats for sin, each day; and they shall offer a calf of the drove, and a wether unwemmed of sheep. (For seven days, each day for a sin offering thou shalt offer a goat-buck, a calf from the herd, and a ram from the sheep, all of them without blemish, or without fault.)
26 By seven days they shall [fully] cleanse the altar, and shall make it clean, and they shall [ful]fill the hand thereof. (And so for seven days they shall fully cleanse, or shall fully purify, the altar, and shall make it clean, and they shall consecrate it.)
27 Forsooth when seven days be [ful]filled, in the eighth day and further, (the) priests shall make on the altar your burnt sacrifices, and those things which they offer for peace; and I shall be pleased to you, saith the Lord God. (And when the seven days be fulfilled, on the eighth day, and afterward, the priests shall offer upon the altar your burnt sacrifices, and your peace offerings; and then I shall be pleased with you, saith the Lord God.)
