Context

The Altar of Sacrifice

²⁴You must present them before the LORD; the priests are to sprinkle salt on them and sacrifice them as a burnt offering to the LORD.²⁵For seven days you are to provide a male goat daily for a sin offering; you are also to provide a young bull and a ram from the flock, both unblemished. ²⁶For seven days the priests are to make atonement for the altar and cleanse it; so they shall consecrate it.

Summary

In this verse, the prophet Ezekiel describes the ritual of atonement for the altar, highlighting the importance of cleansing and consecrating it for the Lord's use. The blood of the sin offering is to be applied to the four horns of the altar, the four corners of the ledge, and the rim around it, symbolizing purification and sanctification. This act signifies the removal of sin and the restoration of a right relationship between God and His people through the shedding of blood. The meticulous instructions emphasize the holiness and reverence required in approaching God, pointing to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ that brings eternal atonement for sin.

Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

Seven days shalt thou prepare - These are, in general, ordinances of the Law; and may be seen by consulting the parallel passages. All these directions are given that they might follow them, when they should be put in possession of their own land. For in several cases the prophet enters into particulars, as if he had supposed that the book of the law had perished.
