Context of Ezekiel 46:6
4The prince must offer to the Lord six lambs that have no defects and one ram that has no defects as a burnt offering on the day of rest—a holy day. 5The grain offering that is to be brought with the ram must be a half-bushel, and the grain offering that is to be brought with the lambs must be whatever the prince can bring. One gallon of olive oil must be brought with each half-bushel of grain. On the first day of the month, the burnt offering must be one young bull, six lambs, and one ram—all animals that have no defects. 7With each young bull and each ram the offering must include a half-bushel of grain, and with each lamb the offering must be whatever the prince wants to bring. One gallon of olive oil must be offered with each half-bushel of grain. 8When the prince enters, he must enter through the entrance hall of the gateway. He must enter and leave the same way.
