The Lord returns to the Temple
Ezekiel 43:1-12
The Altar
Ezekiel 43:13-17
Consecration of the altar
Ezekiel 43:18-27
Use of the East Gate
Ezekiel 44:1-3
Rules for admission to the Temple
Ezekiel 44:4-9
The Levites are excluded
Ezekiel 44:10-14
The priests

More measurements and descriptions of this brand new building, and then, wonder of wonders, the glory of the Lord returns to inhabit it. Ezekiel had seen God’s glory leave the Old Temple, and he witnesses in his vision God’s return to the New.
Ezekiel has to record all this and pass it on to the people. “Let them consider its perfection.” God says (43:10).
God has new commands of holiness for the new Temple. No foreigners, the strictest of hygiene, and strict conduct of life for those ministering in the Temple. In return for this, his very presence has returned, giving Israel a new start.
