Ezekiel46:1
1 THus saith the Lord GOD; the gate of the inward court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working dayes ; but on the sabbath it shall be opened , and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened.
'Twas the East-gate of the Court next to the Temple, or which did lead into the inmost Court, where the Altar of burnt-offering stood.
This explains that of chap. 44.2. let. d. f. g.
Or every day that is a working day.
On that holy rest the prospect into the Temple, and to the Altar shall be free.
The Priests should open it.
This one festival is named, but all the rest are included, this gate was to be shut onely on working dayes, therefore to be open on all holy dayes, which were dayes of holy Service to God.
