Ezekiel 46:14

14 and he shall make sacrifice on it full early; early he shall make the sixth part of ephah, and of oil the third part of hin, that it be meddled with the flour of wheat; it is a lawful sacrifice, continual and everlasting, to the Lord. (and thou shalt provide an offering with it every morning; yea, each morning thou shalt provide the sixth part of an ephah of grain, and the third part of a hin of oil, that it be mixed, or mingled, with the wheat flour; this is a sacrifice ordained by law, continual, or daily, and everlasting, to the Lord.)

Ezekiel 46:14 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 46:14

And thou shalt prepare a meat offering for morning
That is, for the daily burnt offering to go along with it; prayer and thanksgiving for our temporal and spiritual food, which should be done every morning: the sixth part of an ephah, and the third part of an hin of oil, to
temper with the fine flour;
to mix with it, and moisten it: under the law, only a tenth part of an ephah of fine flour, and a fourth part of a hin of oil, were ordered to make this meat offering of, ( Exodus 29:40 ) , wherefore Kimchi observes, this is a new thing in time to come: the reason of it is this; to show us, that as the blessings of grace abound under the Gospel dispensation, we should abound in our thanksgiving to God: a meat offering, continually, by a perpetual ordinance unto the Lord;
these sorts of sacrifices are never to cease; and so the Jews ^F14 themselves say,

``in future time, or in the days of the Messiah, all sacrifices shall cease; but the sacrifice of praise shall not cease.''

Ezekiel 46:14 In-Context

12 Forsooth when the prince maketh a willful burnt sacrifice, either willful peaceable sacrifice(s) to the Lord, the gate that beholdeth to the east shall be opened to him; and he shall make his burnt sacrifice, and his peaceable sacrifices, as it is wont to be done in the day of sabbath; and he shall go out, and the gate shall be closed after that he went out. (And when the prince provideth a voluntary burnt sacrifice, or peace offerings to the Lord, the gate that faceth east shall be opened for him; and he shall make his burnt sacrifice, and his peace offerings, as it is wont to be done on the day of sabbath; and then he shall go out, and the gate shall be closed after that he hath gone out.)

13 And he shall make burnt sacrifice each day to the Lord, a lamb without wem of the same year; ever he shall make it in the morrowtide, (And thou shalt provide a burnt sacrifice each day to the Lord, a lamb of the first year without blemish; thou shalt provide it every morning,)

14 and he shall make sacrifice on it full early; early he shall make the sixth part of ephah, and of oil the third part of hin, that it be meddled with the flour of wheat; it is a lawful sacrifice, continual and everlasting, to the Lord. (and thou shalt provide an offering with it every morning; yea, each morning thou shalt provide the sixth part of an ephah of grain, and the third part of a hin of oil, that it be mixed, or mingled, with the wheat flour; this is a sacrifice ordained by law, continual, or daily, and everlasting, to the Lord.)

15 He shall make (ready) a lamb, and sacrifice, and oil, full early; he shall make (ready) early [the] burnt sacrifice everlasting. (Thou shalt provide a lamb, and a grain sacrifice, and oil, every morning; yea, each morning thou shalt provide the everlasting burnt sacrifice.)

16 The Lord God saith these things, If the prince giveth an house to any of his sons, the heritage of him shall be of his sons; they shall wield it by heritage. (The Lord God saith these things, If the prince giveth a house to any of his sons, its inheritance shall be for his sons; yea, they shall get it by inheritance.)
