Ordinances for the prince in his worship9. and for the people 16. An order for the prince's inheritance 19. The courts for boiling and baking And he said to me This phrase indicates a direct communication from God to Ezekiel, emphasizing the divine authority and instruction being conveyed. In the Hebrew text, the verb "said" (אָמַר, 'amar) is often used to denote not just speech but a declaration or command from God. This underscores the importance of the message and the role of Ezekiel as a prophet who receives and communicates God's will to the people. This is the place where the priests will boil the guilt offering and the sin offering and where they will bake the grain offering so that they do not bring them into the outer court and transmit holiness to the people Bear them not out into the utter court.--In one sense the priestly chambers and also these cooking rooms were themselves in the outer court; but as already remarked, these, with the walk that led to them, although within the enclosure of the outer, were considered as appurtenances of, and therefore belonging to, the inner court. The reason given for not bearing the flesh of the sin and trespass offering into the outer court is, lest they should thereby "sanctify the people," and the same reason is given in Ezekiel 44:19 for not allowing the priests' garments to come into the outer court. Under the law all those offerings which it was the duty of the priests to consume are called "most holy," and whoever touched them or the sacred vessels of the sanctuary became "holy" in the sense of set apart to God (Leviticus 6:18; also Exodus 29:37; Exodus 30:29). The object of the command is therefore to prevent that ceremonial sanctification of the people which would interfere with their ordinary life. Verse 20. - The "place" was designed as a kitchen where the priests should boil the trespass and the sin offerings and bake the meat (or, meal) offering, i.e. cook the portions of the sacrifices they should eat in their official capacity (see Ezekiel 42:13). The Law of Moses (Leviticus 8:31) required the flesh to be boiled (and probably also the flour to be baked) at the tabernacle door. The last clause, that they, i.e. the priests, bear them, i.e. the offerings, not out into the utter (or, outer) court, to sanctify the people, is by most interpreters understood in the sense of Ezekiel 44:19 (which see). To this, however, Kliefoth objects that the conception of deriving ceremonial sanctity from contact with such offerings is completely strange to the Old Testament (see Haggai 2:12), and accordingly he connects the words. "to sanctify the people," with the "baking" and "boiling" of the preceding clause.Parallel Commentaries ...
