Ezekiel 46:24

Then said he unto me, These are the places of them that boil, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.

Then said he unto me, these are the places of them that boil,.... The kitchens, in which those whose business it was to boil the sacrifices did it; and who they were are next declared:

where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people; these seem to be the Levites, as distinct from the priests before mentioned; though in this prophecy they are both used of the same persons; see Ezekiel 44:15, the sacrifice of the people were the peace offerings, which the people might eat of, but were first to be boiled; typical of peace and reconciliation made by Christ, held forth in the ministry of the word, called from thence the word of reconciliation: of the boiling of sacrifices, See Gill on "Ezekiel 44:15". The Targum is,

"the holy sacrifices of the people;''

see Romans 12:1.
