Yechezkel 45:10 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 45:10

Ye shall have just balances
That is, take care that true weights and just measures be used in trade and commerce, that so one man may not impose upon and cheat another; which is the business of the civil magistrate to look after: and a just ephah, and a just bath;
and not make the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit, as some did, ( Amos 8:5 ) the "ephah" was a measure for dry things, as wheat, barley and the "bath" for liquid things, as wine oil as Jarchi and Kimchi observe; see ( Leviticus 19:35 Leviticus 19:36 ) .

Yechezkel 45:10 In-Context

8 In the land shall be his achuzzah in Yisroel; and My Nasiim (Princes, Rulers) shall no more oppress My people; and the rest of HaAretz shall they give to Bais Yisroel according to their Shivtei [Bnei Yisroel].

9 Thus saith Adonoi Hashem: Let it suffice you, O Nasi’im (Princes, Rulers) of Yisroel: remove chamas and oppression, and execute mishpat and tzedakah, take away your gerushot (exactions) from My people, saith Adonoi Hashem.

10 Ye shall have me’oznei tzedek (honest scales), and an ephah tzedek, and a bas tzedek.

11 The ephah and the bas shall be of one measure, that the bas may contain the tenth part of a chomer, and the ephah the tenth part of a chomer; the measure thereof shall be after the chomer.

12 And the shekel shall be twenty gerah; twenty shekalim, five and twenty shekalim, fifteen shekel, shall be the minah for you.
