Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 48:23-29

Tribal allotments in the south 48:23-29The tribal allotments south of this special territory would fall to Benjamin, Simeon, Issachar, Zebulun, and Gad. This was the total land to be divided by lot and the tribes’ individual portions.The tribe of Benjamin received land next to the holy allotment, possibly because Benjamin was one of Rachel’s sons or because the Benjamites supported David (cf. 2 Samuel 19:16-17) and allied with Judah to form the Southern Kingdom. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 48:1-35

The Division of the Land and the Plan of the City(a) The Tribes (Ezekiel 48:1-7; Ezekiel 48:23-29)These were twelve in number, as the two tribes descended from Joseph (Ezekiel 47:13) made up for the exclusion of Levi. From the N. border (Ezekiel 48:1) to the S. border (Ezekiel 48:28) the country was divided into 13 parallel zones, running across it from the E. to the W. boundary. Starting from the N., seven of these were assigned in order to the tribes of Dan, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh,... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Ezekiel 48:21

(21) The residue shall be for the prince.—The length of the oblation from east to west is supposed to leave a strip at either end which is assigned to the prince. This strip is to extend from north to south, the whole width of the oblation. The expression “over against the portions for the prince” is somewhat obscure from its extreme brevity and want of punctuation in our version; it means that the part of the oblation over against the tribe portions shall be for the prince—i.e., he is to have... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Ezekiel 48:23

(23) The rest of the tribes.—In Ezekiel 48:23-29 the remaining five tribes have their portions assigned on the south of the oblation in precisely the same way as the seven on the north. read more

The Ideal City Ezekiel 48:8 I. And the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it. This need not startle us unduly; we come here somewhat suddenly upon a great philosophy: this is how all things are moulded and ruled and blessed. It is so in the case of the individual heart It is a poor life that has not the sanctuary in the midst of it; it may be invisible: God is a Spirit, and not to be seen; to see Him is to annihilate Him. How poor a life it would be without the unseen, the invisible, the... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 48:1-35

RENEWAL AND ALLOTMENT OF THE LANDEzekiel 47:1-23; Ezekiel 48:1-35IN the first part of the forty-seventh chapter the visionary form of the revelation, which had been interrupted by the important series of communications on which we have been so long engaged, is again resumed. The prophet, once more under the direction of his angelic guide, sees a stream of water issuing from the Temple buildings and flowing eastward into the Dead Sea. Afterwards he receives another series of directions relating... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Ezekiel 48:1-35

CHAPTER 48 1. The portion of the seven tribes (Ezekiel 48:1-7 ) 2. The oblation for the sanctuary, for the city, and for the prince (Ezekiel 48:8-20 ) 3. The gates of the city and its new name (Ezekiel 48:30-35 ) Without entering into the measurements, the architecture, and other features of this great temple, we point out a few things which are important. First, as to the contents of the interior of this temple. The words “silver and gold” are not mentioned once in Ezekiel 40:1-49 ;... read more

48:22 Moreover from the possession of the Levites, and from the possession of the city, [being] in the midst [of that] which is the prince’s, between the border {e} of Judah and the border of Benjamin, shall be for the prince.(e) So that Judah was on the north side of the princes and Levites portions and Benjamin on the south side. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 48:1-35

THE CLOSE OF THE BOOK THE GATE OF THE PRINCE (Ezekiel 44:1-3 ) As the glory of Jehovah had entered this gate (Ezekiel 48:4-5 ), it must hereafter be closed for all but His representative the prince. This cannot mean the Messiah, because the prince requires a sin-offering. (Remember that sin will be suppressed in that day, but not yet extirpated.) Doubtless this prince is a future prince of the house of David. THE FUTURE PRIESTS AND LEVITES (Ezekiel 44:9-31 ) Ezekiel 44:9-14 show that... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 48:9-22

Here are directions, very largely given, for the different services of the several tribes, and their importance; of which we cannot now speak particularly. It is on these points, this striking prophecy more immediately abounds with difficulties. Probably the millennium will explain the whole. read more
