22<\/strong>. The sin-offering for the second and following days was a he-goat<\/strong> so read for “kid of the goats.” On “cleanse” cf. Eze 43:20<\/em><\/span>. The ceremonies with the blood and the burning outside were no doubt the same as those on the first day, Eze 43:20-21<\/em><\/span>.<\/p>\n They shall cleanse – <\/B>By sprinkling the blood Eze 43:18<\/span>. Here they marks the act as that of the priests. Moses did his part before the priests were consecrated, and the seer could act through them.<\/P> <\/p>\n The next days sacrifice is here directed. <\/P> Without blemish:<\/B> this was a qualification required in all sacrifices, and there were priests appointed to search whether they were perfect, in which search they were very punctual and curious. <\/P> For a sin offering:<\/B> see Eze 43:19<\/span>. <\/P> And they, <\/B>the priests in attendance or course, <\/P> shall cleanse the altar, <\/B>with the blood of the kid put upon the altar, as appointed, and as the blood of the bullock, Eze 43:20<\/span>. <\/P> <\/p>\n 18-27.<\/B> The sacrifices here arenot mere commemorative, but propitiatory ones. The expressions,”blood” (Eze 43:18<\/span>),and “for a sin offering” (Eze 43:19<\/span>;Eze 43:21<\/span>; Eze 43:22<\/span>),prove this. In the literal<\/I> sense they can only apply to thesecond temple. Under the Christian dispensation they would directlyoppose the doctrine taught in Heb10:1-18<\/span>, namely, that Christ has by one offering for ever atonedfor sin. However, it is possible<\/I> that they might exist with aretrospective<\/I> reference to Christ’s sufferings, as theLevitical sacrifices had a prospective<\/I> reference to them; notpropitiatory in themselves, but memorials to keep up the remembranceof His propitiatory sufferings, which form the foundation of Hiskingdom, lest they should be lost sight of in the glory of thatkingdom [DE BURGH].The particularity of the directions make it unlikely that they are tobe understood in a merely vague spiritual sense.<\/P><\/p>\n And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering<\/strong>,…. Jarchi observes, that this was not in the tabernacle, but ordered to be in future time by him that speaks; instead of this, another ram was appointed by the law,<\/p>\n Ex 29:15<\/span>, this shows the ceremonial law to be changeable, and now abolished: this was typical of Christ, without spot and blemish, and yet figured by the goat, being made sin for his people:<\/p>\n and they shall cleanse the altar<\/strong>, as they did cleanse it with the bullock; [See comments on Eze 43:20]<\/span>.<\/p>\n (22) A kid of the goats<\/strong>.More exactly, a buck of the goats.<\/em> This was the sin offering prescribed for a ruler (Lev. 4:22-23<\/span>). The expression as they did with the bullock, implies that the ritual was the same, and the flesh burned in the same way. At the consecration of the altar in Exo. 29:36<\/span>, a bullock was required for the sin offering on each of the seven days for the consecration of both the altar and the priests.<\/p>\n “And on the second day you will offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin offering, and they will cleanse the altar as they cleansed it with the bullock. When you have made an end of cleansing it, you will offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish, and you will bring them near before Yahweh, and the priests shall cast salt on them, and they shall offer them up as a whole burnt offering to Yahweh.”<\/p>\n Note again the emphasis on cleansing (literally ‘de-sinning’). Until that was accomplished no whole burnt offering could be offered up, an offering wholly consumed in fire. But then a young bull and a ram, both without blemish, could be offered as a whole (burnt) offering, an act of total self-giving, of worship, love and gratitude. But it would require seven days, the period of divine perfection, to thoroughly cleanse the altar. This sounds like something very intense and necessary, not at all like a memorial offering.<\/p>\n ‘And the priests shall cast salt on them.’ Compare Lev 2:13<\/span>; Num 18:19<\/span>; Mar 9:49<\/span>. The idea seems to be of a preservative function and a countering of corruption. It was closely linked with the covenant and was continually required (Lev 2:13<\/span>) as a sign of the preserving of the covenant relationship without corruption.<\/p>\n Eze 43:22 And on the second day thou shalt 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.<\/p>\n Ver. 22. And they shall cleanse the altar.<\/strong> ] To set forth how Christ cleanseth and sanctifieth his people. Heb 9:19-24 <\/em> Joh 17:19 <\/em> Heb 9:13-14 <\/p>\n NASB (UPDATED) TEXT: Eze 43:22-27<\/p>\n 22’On the second day you shall offer a male goat without blemish for a sin offering, and they shall cleanse the altar as they cleansed it with the bull. 23When you have finished cleansing it, you shall present a young bull without blemish and a ram without blemish from the flock. 24You shall present them before the LORD, and the priests shall throw salt on them, and they shall offer them up as a burnt offering to the LORD. 25For seven days you shall prepare daily a goat for a sin offering; also a young bull and a ram from the flock, without blemish, shall be prepared. 26For seven days they shall make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they consecrate it. 27When they have completed the days, it shall be that on the eighth day and onward, the priests shall offer your burnt offerings on the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you,’ declares the Lord GOD.<\/p>\n Eze 43:24 salt Usually salt was put with the grain offerings (cf. Lev 2:13) and here with blood offerings. Because of Eze 6:9 it possibly was put on all offerings. It was a symbol of the Israelite’s covenant with YHWH (cf. Num 18:19; 2Ch 13:5).<\/p>\n Eze 43:25-26 for seven days This purification and dedication procedure parallels Exo 29:35-37; Lev 8:33-36. Holy things had to have a special initiation and also rigid procedures for maintaining their holiness. The Mosaic legislation (and also that of Ezekiel) was keen on maintaining a strict separation between the holy and the mundane, the clean and the unclean. This ritual separation reflected their theology of the world and life, the physical and spiritual<\/p>\n goat Goats were not used in the Mosaic system for dedication offerings.<\/p>\n Eze 43:27 peace offering This was the fellowship meal where God symbolically ate with the offerer. It was eaten in the temple setting and is a foreshadowing of the Lord’s Supper.<\/p>\n I will accept you, declares the Lord GOD This was the purpose of Ezekiel’s sacrificial cultus (i.e., reunite sinful Israel with a holy God). Ezekiel sees it in terms of ancient sacrificial ritual (i.e., Leviticus 1-7).<\/p>\n The VERB (BDB 953, KB 1280, Qal PERFECT) is also used in Eze 20:40-41 of an accepted sacrifice. Because YHWH was with His people, purity, holiness, ceremonial cleanness must be maintained!<\/p>\n DISCUSSION QUESTIONS<\/p>\n This is a study guide commentary, which means that you are responsible for your own interpretation of the Bible.

This also was part of the seven-day ritual necessary to cleanse the altar. Then he should present another bull and another ram, equally blemish free, in the inner court. The priest was to throw salt on them, slay them, and offer them as burnt offerings. Salt was an agent of purification and preservation that was often used symbolically (cf. Lev 2:13; Num 18:19; 2Ch 13:5; Mar 9:49).<\/p>\n And on the second day thou shalt 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. 22.
