Ezekiel 46:11 - Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible

Bible Comments

The Meal Offerings At The Feasts and The Appointed Times (Ezekiel 46:11).

“And at the feasts and at the appointed times the meal offering shall be an ephah for a bullock and an ephah for a ram and for the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil to an ephah.

The importance of the meal offering comes out in its re-emphasis here. These were offerings of which the priests partook, it was a most holy offering (Leviticus 3:2). Once again mention is made of the prince's ability to provide sometimes more, sometimes less. This would depend on what the harvests had been like (Ezekiel 45:15). ‘The appointed times' are presumably the new moons and sabbaths.
