Context of Ezekiel 43:21

19you will give a young bull for a sin offering to the Levitical priests who are descended from Zadok, who approach me to minister to me, declares the sovereign Lord. 20You will take some of its blood, and place it on the four horns of the altar, on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border all around; you will cleanse it and make atonement for it. You will also take the bull for the sin offering, and it will be burned in the appointed place in the temple, outside the sanctuary. 22“On the second day, you will offer a male goat without blemish for a sin offering. They will purify the altar just as they purified it with the bull. 23When you have finished purifying it, you will offer an unblemished young bull and an unblemished ram from the flock.

Commentaries on Ezekiel 43:21

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 21In the appointed place of the house - A place within the temple-court, but “without the sanctuary” properly so called, that is to say, without the temple and inner court. This was probably the “separate place” (see Ezekiel 41:12).Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 18-21The new altar had to be consecrated (set apart for holy use) before it could be used. On the first day, the priests were to offer a young bull as a sin offering. They were to put its blood on the horns and corners of the altar. This act made the altar ready for holy service. After this, they burned the body of the sin offering outside the sacred area. This was the same practice used with the tabernacle (compare Leviticus 4:11–12).Read the comment
• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 13-2713-27. As to the altar of burnt offering, which was the appointed means of access to God.Read the comment
