Gill's Notes on the Bible

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The careful provision here made to keep separate the offerings of priests and people was to prevent collision, just as the enactments Ezekiel 46:16-18 were intended to secure their respective rights to prince and people.
Ezekiel 46:19
At the side of the gate - The entrance to the inner court at the same side as the northern gate Ezekiel 42:9.

Boil - It was unique to the Paschal lamb, that it was to be eaten roasted. The flesh of the other sacrifices was to be “sodden” or boiled (see Leviticus 6:28; 1 Samuel 2:13; 2 Chronicles 24:14 margin). The “meat-offering” (flour and honey) was baked Leviticus 2:4.
Ezekiel 46:21
See K. Plan II.
Ezekiel 46:22
courts joined - enclosed courts, and entered by doors in the walls, which shut them out from the great court. The marginal rendering, “made with chimnies,” is based upon another interpretation of the word.
These four corners - Or, “these four corner-courts were of one measure.”
