Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 44:28

28 And it shall be unto them for an inheritance : I am their inheritance . And ye shall give them no possession in Israel: I am their possession .

Sin-offering being mention'd immediately before gives the occasion of repeating the Provision made for the Priests, for under this one, all other offerings are couched, and if the Lord do so expresly require a defil'd Priest to bring his sin-offering, in which the ministring Priests had their share, he would expect the same of all Israel, which would amount to a great summe.

Instead of Lands and Cities.

God is the inheritance of all his people, but specially of his Priests, and so what is given to God by him is assign'd to his Officers.

As the rest of the Tribes had.

the peculiar blessing of God on them, and their share in his offerings, was a very rich possession.
