Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible
Ezekiel Ch.45 / 48 Ch.s
EZE:45
- In the period here foretold, the worship and the ministers of
God will be provided for; the princes will rule with justice, as
holding their power under Christ; the people will live in peace,
ease, and godliness. These things seem to be represented in
language taken from the customs of the times in which the
prophet wrote. Christ is our Passover that is sacrificed for us:
we celebrate the memorial of that sacrifice, and feast upon it,
triumphing in our deliverance out of the Egyptian slavery of
sin, and our preservation from the destroying sword of Divine
justice, in the Lord's supper, which is our passover feast; as
the whole Christian life is, and must be, the feast of the
unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
