SCRIPTURE

"And thou shalt prepare a lamb a year old without blemish for a burnt-offering unto Jehovah daily: morning by morning shalt thou prepare it." — Ezekiel 46:13 (ASV)

Daily prepare a burnt offering.—Ezekiel 46:13–15 contain regulations for the daily sacrifice. The victim is the same as under the Mosaic law; but instead of being offered every morning and evening (Numbers 28:3–5), it is here provided only for the morning. On the other hand, the accompanying meat offering is increased from the tenth to the sixth of an ephah of flour, and from a fourth to a third of a hin of oil.

The rest of the chapter is occupied with the rights of the prince in regard to the conveyance of his land (Ezekiel 46:16–18), and a short description of the sacrificial kitchens for the priests and the people (Ezekiel 46:19–24).
