Ezekiel45:10
10 Ye shall have just balances , and a just ephah and a just bathe.
Princes of Israel.
Though they were not Traders to use, yet they must have i. e. appoint, for to them as a priviledge, it appertains to appoint standards for measure among their subjects.
Or weights and scales, by which to measure what is to be sold by weight, one and the same to all, that none buy by a greater, and sell by a lesser. So Lev. 19.35▪ 36. Prov. 11.1. & 16.11. Mic 6.10, 11. so must the Prince remove oppressive cheating by divers weights.
To measure dry things, as Corn, Olives, Dates, &c.
This was a measure of liquid things, as Oyl, Wine or Water, and what each contained the next verse will acquaint us.
