Context of Ezekiel 45:17
15and one sheep from each flock of two hundred, from the watered places of Israel, for a grain offering, burnt offering, and peace offering, to make atonement for them, declares the sovereign Lord. 16All the people of the land will contribute to this offering for the prince of Israel.
