This site's exposition

All the people of the land must participate

on Ezekiel 45:16-17

The prince supplies the offerings “for the feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths,” with the sin offerings that make atonement for the house of Israel. The arrangement makes the prince a steward of worship. Henry reads the office as royal provision restored to its proper use, supporting the altar.

This site's exposition

to provide the burnt offerings

The feasts, New Moons and Sabbaths listed here follow the calendar of Numbers 28 and 29, now supplied through one officer. The people give their contribution to the prince in verse 16, and he answers for the offerings. Earlier kings stripped the temple (2 Kings 16:17; 18:16).

(Verse 15 and following) And one ram from the flock of two hundred, from those that nourish Israel, for a sacrifice, and for a burnt offering, and for peace offerings, to make atonement for them, says the Lord God. The whole population of the land shall be held accountable for these first fruits to the prince in Israel. And the prince shall have burnt offerings, and sacrifice, and drink offerings for the festivals, and for the new moons, and for the Sabbaths, and for all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel.

Some particular solemnities are here appointed. Here is one in the beginning of the year, which seems to be altogether new, and not instituted by the law of Moses; it is the annual solemnity of cleansing the sanctuary. (1.) On the first day of the first month (upon new-year's day) they were to offer a sacrifice for the cleansing of the sanctuary (
