- What “distribution” is introduced in Ezekiel 45:1?
- According to Ezekiel 45:4, the measurements and the distribution are intended to provide for what group?
- Do these measurements parallel the measurements set forth in the Five Books and, generally, the provisions made for the Kohanim and the Leviim?
- And, in the Five Books is there any provision for the “nasi” (Ezekiel 45:7)?
- Why, according to Ezekiel 45:8, is a portion of the land (in redistribution following the restoration) to go to the “nasi”?
- What further mandate is give to the nasi in Ezekiel 45:9-15?
- Does the nasi (Ezekiel 45:17) have any sacerdotal role and have we encountered either the title nasi or a role for same in the Five Books?
- Ezekiel 45:18 makes reference to the first day of the first month — to what month might this refer?
- What portions of the Temple area are to be marked (Ezekiel 45:19)?
- Is this procedure to be repeated and, if so, when (Ezekiel 45:20)?
- Would Ezekiel 45:21 definitely indicate that the first month is the same first month to which reference is made in the Five Books?
- Does the description of The Passover indicate that no hametz is to be consumed?
- Is the description of The Passover geared to “the people” or primarily to the Temple activity?
