Ezekiel44:11

11 Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary , having charge at the gates of the house, and ministring to the house: they shall slay the burnt-offering, and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister unto them .

Servants, employ'd in the lowest, and least honourable work.

Not the Temple it self, but about the courts of it.

Shall be Porters to open and shut, and sweep, and ready to go on errands.

Probably made learn the Arts of Mason or Smith to mend and repair, to fetch Wood and Water with Iehusites.

Do that servile work for the sacrificing Priest.

All the sacrifices the People bring.

Heb. expression of Servants attendance.

To wait and obey the Priests.
