Ezekiel 45:22 Summary
This verse shows that even the prince, a leader, needs to acknowledge his sin and provide a sacrifice to make things right with God. The sin offering of a bull represents the need for a perfect sacrifice to cover sin, which is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Just like the prince, we all need to recognize our sin and seek forgiveness, as seen in 1 John 1:8-9. By doing so, we can receive cleansing and restoration, just as the people of the land were represented by the prince's sin offering.
Frequently Asked Questions

What is the significance of the bull as a sin offering?
The bull as a sin offering represents the perfect sacrifice required to atone for sin, pointing forward to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross, as described in Hebrews 10:1-18.

Gill's Exposition on Ezekiel 45:22
And upon that day,.... The fourteenth day of the month Nisan; the first day of the passover, as Kimchi observes: shall the prince prepare for himself, and for all the people of the land, a bullock
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezekiel 45:22
In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Ezekiel 45:22
Upon that day; upon the fourteenth day, on which the passover was slain. The prince; as before, ,18. Prepare for himself, to expiate his own sins. And for all the people: see , where the same is found.
Trapp's Commentary on Ezekiel 45:22
Ezekiel 45:22 And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock [for] a sin offering.Ver. 22. Shall the prince prepare.] See Ezekiel 45:17.
Ellicott's Commentary on Ezekiel 45:22
(22) A bullock for a sin offering.—In Ezekiel 45:21 the Passover is appointed quite in accordance with the Mosaic institution, although there is a peculiarity in the language of the original which has led some writers to infer, unnecessarily, that the feast was to be kept for seven weeks. But the sacrifices are in many respects quite different. Nothing is said of the Paschal lamb itself: but this may be because it was understood as a matter of course. The sin offering by the Mosaic law (Numbers 28:17; Numbers 28:22) was to be a he-goat for each day; here, a bullock for the first day, and a he-goat for the other days (Ezekiel 45:23). The burnt offering by the law was to be two bullocks, a ram, and seven yearling lambs for each day; here, seven bullocks and seven rams. The meat offering was to be three-tenths of an ephah of meal, mixed with oil, for each bullock, two-tenths for each ram, and one-tenth for each lamb, or one and a half ephahs in all daily; here, a whole ephah for each victim, making in all fourteen ephahs daily and as many hins of oil (Ezekiel 45:24). The offerings required here therefore are much richer than under the law.
Cambridge Bible on Ezekiel 45:22
22. prepare for himself] provide, Ezekiel 45:17.
Whedon's Commentary on Ezekiel 45:22
21-25. It is commanded that on the fourteenth day of Abib (compare Exodus 12:6) the passover shall be celebrated (Ezekiel 45:21) and the prince “shall provide” (Ezekiel 45:22-23; compare Ezekiel
