LORD; and the priests shall sprinkle salt thereon, and offer them for a burnt offering unto the LORD.

So thou shalt offer a goat for a sin offering every day seven days in succession: and they shall offer a young bullock, and a ram of the flock, both without change.

And they shall make an atonement for the altar seven days, and cleanse it, and fill his hands.

And after those days shall the priests offer your burnt offerings and your peace offerings upon the altar for ever on the eighth day, and after that, and I will be gracious unto you, saith the LORD GOD.
(Ezekial)
Chapter 44
Of the priests of the new temple and their order.

And he brought me again unto the gate of the outer sanctuary eastward: and it was shut.

And the LORD said unto me, This gate shall be shut, and shall not be opened; neither shall any man pass through it, save the LORD God of Israel, which shall pass through it; and it shall be shut.

But the prince excepted: for the prince shall sit under it to eat bread before the LORD: he shall enter in through the hall, and go out through the same.

And afterward he brought me unto the gate of the house toward the north: and I looked, and, behold, the house of the LORD was full of the glory of the LORD: and I fell upon my face.

And the LORD said unto me, Son of man, take heed, and see, and hearken diligently unto all that I shall tell thee of all the statutes and judgments of the house of the LORD; and take heed how thou goest in, and unto all the exits of the sanctuary.

And say unto the disobedient house of Israel, Thus saith the LORD GOD; Ye do exceedingly, O house of Israel, with all your abominations;

For ye bring strangers, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, into my sanctuary, to profane my house, when ye offer my bread, and my fat, and my blood, and to break my covenant with all your abominations.

And do not keep the customs of my sanctuary, but make for yourselves new customs in my sanctuary.

Therefore thus saith the LORD GOD; There shall no stranger of uncircumcised heart and uncircumcised flesh come into my sanctuary out of all the strangers that are among the children of Israel,

Neither the Levites, which have departed from me, and gone astray from me with Israel after their idols. Therefore shall they bear their sin.

And they shall minister in my sanctuary at the offices, and at the doors of the house, and in the house: and they shall kill only the burnt offering, and other sacrifices, which the people bring, and shall stand before the priests to minister unto them.

Because they have served them before their idols, and have given the house of Israel occasion to sin, therefore have I stretched out mine hand upon them, saith the LORD GOD, that they should bear their sin.

And they shall not come nigh unto me to perform the priest’s office, neither shall they come nigh unto any of my sanctuary, unto the holy of holies; but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.

Therefore have I made them keepers of all the service of the house, and of all that shall be done therein.

But the priests of the Levites, the sons of Zadok, which have kept the statutes of my
sanctuary, when the children of Israel fell away from me, they shall come before me, and minister unto me, and stand before me to offer me the fat and the blood, saith the LORD
GOD.

And they shall enter into my sanctuary, and stand before my table, to serve me, and to keep my statutes.

And when they go in through the gates of the inner court, they shall put on linen garments, and have nothing on, because they minister in the gates of the inner court.

And they shall have linen upon their heads, and linen for their loins; and they shall not gird themselves with sweat.

And it shall come to pass, when they go out into the outer court unto the people, that they shall put off the garments wherein they ministered, and lay them in the chambers of the sanctuary, and put on other garments, and not sanctify the people in their own garments.

They shall not shave their heads, neither shall they let their hair grow free, but they shall shave their hair round about.

Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they go into the inner court.

And they shall not take a widow or a reprobate in marriage, but virgins of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow left of a priest.

And they shall teach my people, that they may know how to keep the difference between the holy and the unholy, and between the clean and the unclean.

And where a matter cometh before them, they shall stand and judge, and speak after my statutes, and keep my commandments and my statutes, and keep all my feasts, and hallow my sabbaths.

And they shall not go and defile themselves unto any dead person, save unto father, or mother, or son, or daughter, or brother, or sister, which hath not had a husband: upon them shall they defile themselves.

And after his cleansing he shall be numbered seven days.

And when he goeth again into the sanctuary into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, saith the LORD GOD.

But the inheritance which they shall have, that will I myself be. Therefore shall ye not give them a land of their own in Israel: for I am their inheritance.

They shall have their sustenance of the meat offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering: and all the banished things of Israel shall be theirs.

And all the firstfruits and the firstborn of all the heave offerings shall be to the priests. Ye shall also give unto the priests the firstfruits of all that is eaten, that the blessing may remain in thine house.

But whatsoever is a carcase, or torn, whether of fowls or beasts, the priests shall not eat it.
(Ezekial)
Chapter 45
Department of the country. Law of princes. Law of the victims 1. Now therefore, when ye shall divide the land by lot, ye shall set apart a heave offering out of the land, which shall be holy unto the LORD, twenty and five thousand rods long, and ten thousand broad. The place shall be holy as far as it goes.

And from it shall come unto the sanctuary five hundred rods a quarter, and a space round about fifty cubits.

And in the same place, which is twenty and five thousand rods long, and ten thousand broad, shall be the sanctuary, and the holy of holies.

And the rest of the holy land shall be for the priests that minister in the sanctuary, and that come before the LORD to minister unto him, that they may have room for houses; and it shall be holy also.

And the Levites also that minister before the house shall have twenty and five thousand rods long, and ten thousand broad, for their part, for twenty chambers.

And unto the city ye shall leave a place for all the house of Israel, five thousand rods broad, and twenty and five thousand long, beside the separate place of the sanctuary.

And ye shall give the prince also a place on either side between the priests’ place, and between the place of the city, east and west: and the east and the west shall be the same length.

This shall be his own portion in Israel, that my princes shall no more take theirs from my people, but shall leave the land to the house of Israel for their tribes.

For thus saith the Lord GOD; Ye have done long enough, ye princes of Israel; depart from iniquity and violence, and do that which is right and good; and depart from my people your casting out, saith the Lord GOD.

Ye shall have right weight, and right bushels, and right measure.

The ephah and the bath shall be the same, that the bath may be the tenth part of the homer, and the ephah also the tenth part of the homer: for according to the homer they shall both be measured.

But a shekel shall have twenty gerahs: and a mina shall make twenty shekels, twenty and five shekels, and fifteen shekels.

Now this shall be the heave offering which ye shall lift up, even the sixth part of an ephah of a homer of wheat, and the sixth part of an ephah of a homer of barley.

And of the oil ye shall give one bath, even the tenth of the Kor, and the tenth of the Homer: for ten bath make one Homer.

And one lamb of every two hundred sheep of the flock of the pasture of Israel for a meat offering, and for a burnt offering, and for a peace offering, to make an atonement for them, saith the LORD GOD.

All the people of the land shall bring such heave offerings unto the prince in Israel.

And the prince shall offer his burnt offering, and his meat offering, and his drink offering, upon the feasts, and upon the new moons, and upon the sabbaths, and upon all the high feasts of the house of Israel; and he shall offer sin offerings, and meat offerings, and burnt offerings, and peace offerings, to make an atonement for the house of Israel.

Thus saith the LORD GOD; In the first day of the first month thou shalt take a young bullock without change, and shalt cleanse the sanctuary.

And
