He was required to offer an ephah of meal for each bullock or ram; for each lamb he would make a voluntary contribution of meal. Each ephah of meal was to be accompanied by a hin of oil (<span class='bible'>Eze. 46:11<\/span>).<\/p>\n<p>If the prince should desire to offer a free-will offering on a weekday, the eastern gate of the inner court would be opened for him. Upon his departure the gate was to be closed again. Only on sabbath days was the eastern gate left open all day so that worshipers might view the sacrificial ritual (<span class='bible'>Eze. 46:12<\/span>).<\/p>\n<p>Every day sacrifices were to be offered by the priests upon the great Temple altar. A lamb was to be offered and a meal-offering as well (<span class='bible'>Eze. 46:13-15<\/span>). No mention is made here of an evening offering (cf. <span class='bible'>Num. 28:4<\/span> f)[538]<\/p>\n<p>[538] The amount of the meal offering also differs from that prescribed in Numbers.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: College Press Bible Study Textbook Series<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p>(11) <strong>And in the solemnities.<\/strong>The new rules for the proportion of the meat offering, as laid down in <span class='bible'>Eze. 46:5<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Eze. 46:7<\/span>, <span class='bible'>Eze. 45:24<\/span>, are here repeated for the feast days; and it is added that the same is to hold for all established seasons, a different proportion being prescribed only for the daily sacrifice (<span class='bible'>Eze. 46:14<\/span>).<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Ellicott&#8217;s Commentary for English Readers (Old and New Testaments)<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p> <strong> 11, 12<\/strong>. <strong> <\/strong> When the prince, in addition to the sacrifices required by law, brings a personal &ldquo;freewill offering&rdquo; (compare <span class='bible'>Exo 35:29<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Lev 22:23<\/span>) he shall enter the temple just as on the Sabbath and new moons, but the gate shall be closed immediately upon his departure, instead of remaining open until evening, as in the other cases (<span class='bible'>Eze 46:2<\/span>), for the accommodation of other worshipers interested in the sacrifices.

These were offerings of which the priests partook, it was a most holy offering (<span class='bible'>Lev 3:2<\/span>).
