Context of Ezekiel 43:25
23When you have finished purifying it, you will offer an unblemished young bull and an unblemished ram from the flock. 24You will present them before the Lord, and the priests will scatter salt on them and offer them up as a burnt offering to the Lord. “For seven days you will provide every day a goat for a sin offering; a young bull and a ram from the flock, both without blemish, will be provided. 26For seven days they will make atonement for the altar and cleanse it, so they will consecrate it. 27When the prescribed period is over, on the eighth day and thereafter the priests will offer up on the altar your burnt offerings and your peace offerings; I will accept you, declares the sovereign Lord.”

For in several cases the prophet enters into particulars, as if he had supposed that the book of the law had perished.Read the comment
