Ezekiel 44:1-3

GOD’S WORD Translation

The East Gate Is Sealed Shut

44 Then the man took me back to the outer east gate of the holy place, and the gate was shut. ² The Lord said to me, “This gate will stay shut and will not be opened. No one may enter through it because the Lord God of Israel entered through it. It must be kept shut. ³ Only the prince may sit there and eat food in the presence of the Lord. He will enter through the entrance hall of the gateway and leave the same way.”
