And he said unto me, son of man, thus saith the Lord God, &c.] This is the voice of the Lord continued, speaking out of the house to the prophet; (see <264306>Ezekiel 43:6): these are the ordinances of the altar: not what go before, concerning the measures of it, but what follow, concerning the sacrifices to be offered on it: in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and sprinkle blood thereon; this plainly shows that this altar is the altar of burnt offerings; such were to be offered on it, and the blood of them to be sprinkled thereon, as follows; that is, upon the horns, corners, and border of it, (<264320>Ezekiel 43:20).
