Ezekiel 46:6

Listen to Ezekiel 46:6
6 For the day of the new moon, the offering will be a flawless young bull from the herd, six lambs, and a flawless ram,

Ezekiel 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.

Ezekiel 46:6 In-Context

4 On the Sabbath day, the prince will offer to the LORD an entirely burned offering of six flawless lambs and a flawless ram,
5 a grain offering of one ephah for the ram, and a grain offering at his discretion for the lambs, with one hin of oil for each ephah.
6 For the day of the new moon, the offering will be a flawless young bull from the herd, six lambs, and a flawless ram,
7 and he will provide a grain offering of one ephah each for the bull and the ram, and for the lambs as much as he likes, with one hin of oil for each ephah.
8 When the prince enters, he comes in by way of the porch of the gate and goes out in the same direction.
