Ezekiel
Chapter 43
1
Afterward He brought me to the gate,
even
the gate that looks toward the east.
{See
Revelation 1:15}
2~~
And, behold,
the
glory of the 'Elohiym/Godhead of Israel {Jesus Christ}
was
coming from the East.
And
His voice was like the sound of many waters . . .
and
the earth shined with His glory
{for He came to destroy the city}.
3
And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw,
even
according to the vision that I saw
when
I came to destroy the city.
And
the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar;
and
I fell upon my face.
4
And the glory of Jehovah/God
came
into the house by the way of the gate
whose
prospect is toward the east.
5
So the Spirit took me up,
and
brought me into the inner court;
and,
behold, the glory of Jehovah/God filled the house.
6
And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house;
and
the man stood by me.
7
And He said unto me,
"Son
of man, the place of My throne,
and
the place of the soles of My feet,
where
I will dwell in the middle of the children of Israel forever,
and
My Holy Name,
shall
the house of Israel no more defile,
neither
they, nor their kings,
by
their whoredom,
nor
by the carcasses of their kings in their high places. 8
In
their setting of their threshold by My thresholds,
and
their post by My posts,
and
the wall between Me and them,
they
have even defiled My Holy Name
by
their abominations that they have committed.
Therefore I have consumed them in My anger. 9
Now
let them put away their whoredom,
and
the carcasses of their kings, far from Me,
and
I will dwell in the middle of them forever. 10
You,
son of man,
show
the house to the house of Israel,
that
they may be ashamed of their iniquities
and
let them measure the pattern.
11
And if they be ashamed of all that they have done,
show
them the form of the house,
and
the fashion thereof,
and
the goings out thereof,
and
the comings in thereof,
and
all the forms thereof,
and
all the ordinances thereof,
and
all the forms thereof,
and
all the laws thereof.
And
write it in their sight,
that
they may keep the whole form thereof,
and
all the ordinances thereof,
and
do them. 12
This is the law of the house.
Upon
the top of the mountain
the
whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy.
Behold, this is the law of the house.
13 And these are the measures of the altar after the cubits.
The cubit is a cubit and an hand breadth.
Even
the bottom shall be a cubit,
and
the breadth a cubit,
and
the border thereof by the edge thereof
round
about shall be a span.
And this shall be the higher place of the altar. 14
And
from the bottom upon the ground
even
to the lower settle shall be two cubits,
and
the breadth one cubit;
and
from the lesser settle even
to
the greater settle shall be four cubits,
and
the breadth one cubit. 15
So
the altar shall be four cubits;
and
from the altar and upward shall be four horns. 16
And
the altar shall be twelve cubits long,
twelve
broad,
square
in the four squares thereof. 17
And
the settle shall be fourteen cubits long
and
fourteen broad in the four squares thereof
and
the border about it shall be half a cubit
and
the bottom thereof shall be a cubit about
and
His stairs shall look toward the east."
18
And He said unto me,
"Son
of man, thus said the Lord/'Adonay God/Jehovah,
"These
are the ordinances of the altar
in
the day when they shall make it,
to
offer burnt offerings thereon,
and
to sprinkle blood thereon. 19
And
you shall give to the priests
the
Levites that be of the seed of Zadok,
which
approach unto Me,
to
minister unto Me,"
said
the Lord/'Adonay God/Jehovah,
"a
young bullock for a sin offering. 20
And
you shall take of the blood thereof,
and
put it on the four horns of it,
and
on the four corners of the settle,
and
upon the border round about.
Thus shall you cleanse and purge it. 21
You
shall take the bullock also of the sin offering,
and
he shall burn it in the appointed place of the house,
without
the sanctuary. 22
And
on the second day
you
shall offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering;
and
they shall cleanse the altar,
as
they did cleanse it with the bullock. 23
When
you have made an end of cleansing it,
you
shall offer a young bullock without blemish,
and
a ram out of the flock without blemish. 24~~
And
you shall present them before Jehovah/God,
and
the priests shall throw salt on them,
and
they shall offer them up for a burnt offering
to
Jehovah/God.
{in the millennium} 25
Seven days shall you prepare every day a goat for a sin offering.
They
shall also prepare a young bullock,
and
a ram out of the flock, without blemish. 26
Seven
days shall they purge the altar and purify it
and
they shall consecrate themselves. 27
And
when these days are expired,
it
shall be,
that
upon the eighth day,
and
so forward,
the
priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar,
and
your peace offerings.
And
I will accept you,"
said
{'amar} the Lord/'Adonay God/Jehovah.
