Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Ezekiel 48:6
And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even unto the west side, a [portion for] Reuben.
6. Reubendoomed formerly forincest and instability “not to excel” (Ge49:4). So no distinguished prophet, priest, or king had come fromit. Of it were the notorious Dathan and Abiram, the mutineers. Apastoral and Bedouin character marked it and Gad (Jud5:16).

And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side unto the west side, a portion for Reuben. Who, through his sin, lost his birthright; but now, his sin being forgiven and forgotten, has a portion assigned him upon the border of Ephraim, and next to the tribe of Judah; when in Moses and Joshua’s time it lay on the other side Jordan: this points to such persons that shall have their lot and portion in spiritual things; that “see the Son”, that look to Christ alone for righteousness, peace, pardon, and eternal life.
