46:12-15 These are regulations for the freewill offerings of the prince and the regular daily offerings.
46:16 The fact that the prince had sons argues against identifying him with the Messiah.
46:17 Unlike the time when Israel was ruled by a king, the land that belonged to the prince was to be carefully regulated. The sons of the prince could inherit lands from him, but if the prince made a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, the servant was to return the property in the Year of Jubilee, or year of freedom (see Lv 25:8-15).
46:18 Because the prince’s land will remain in his family, he was prohibited from seizing the property of his fellow Israelites. Adherence to this law would prevent some of the abuses of previous times (34:3-4; 1Kg 21:1-16; Mc 2:1-2).
46:19-24 This section describes the holy chambers and the four kitchens used by the priests to cook the sacrifices that have been brought in by the people.
