John Gill Commentary Ezekiel 43:27

"And when they have accomplished the days, it shall be that upon the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt-offerings upon the altar, and your peace-offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord Jehovah." — Ezekiel 43:27 (ASV)

And when these days are expired The seven days of consecration, and all these rites and sacrifices observed: it shall be, that upon the eighth day, and so forward ; that is, on the first day of the week, or Lord's day, the Christian sabbath, the next day after the seventh, and so upon every return of it; in which Christian ministrations are exercised, the word preached, ordinances administered, and works of righteousness and charity done; see (John 20:19John 20:26) (Acts 20:7) (1 Corinthians 16:2) . The priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and your peace offerings ; or "thank offerings" ^F3 ; preach Christ and him crucified to the people, and offer up the sacrifices of prayer and praise unto God for them: and I will accept you, saith the Lord God ; through Christ the Mediator, in whom he is well pleased; who is the altar on which such sacrifices are accepted, and become well pleasing to God, (Isaiah 56:7) (1 Peter 2:5) .
