The priest: had the 17th and 18th verses intended by prince the high priest, there would have been no need of changing the phrase, or of mentioning the priest, it would have been enough to have said, And he shall; but in those verses the bringing and preparing is not priestly, but ascribed to the prince, as it would be to any other who offers a sacrifice to the Lord by the hand of the priest.
Shall take; carry with him in some vessel or other, from the place where the bullock was slain.

and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar; or four horns of it; see Eze 43:14,
and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court; that is, of the temple: this is also a new rule or law about putting the blood of the sacrifice into these various places, of which nothing is said in the law of Moses; and shows that admission into the church of God, and the right participation of Christ, the altar, and the blessings of his grace, as well as entrance into heaven itself, are all through the blood of Christ.

The mode in which this act of purgation should be performed is next described. The blood of the sin offering should by the priest be put (not sprinkled) upon the posts of the house, i.e. upon the posts or pillars of the door connecting the holy place with the holy of holies, (Eze_41:21) and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar of burnt offring in the inner court, (Eze_43:14) and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court, not of the eastern gate only, as Hitzig suggests, but of all the three gates. (Eze_40:29, Eze_40:33, Eze_40:36) Compare Eze_43:20, and the procedure in sin offerings under the Law, which directed that in certain eases part of the blood should be put by the priest"s finger upon the horns of the altar, and the rest poured out beside the bottom of the altar (Exo_29:12; Lev_4:7) while in other cases it should be sprinkled before the veil of the sanctuary, (Lev_4:6, Lev_4:17) and on the great Day of Atonement seven times even on and before the mercy-seat, and on the altar of incense. (Lev_16:14, Lev_16:18, Lev_16:19)
