Ezekiel Chapter 48 Vs. 11


The Division of the Land



It shall be for the priests that are sanctified of the sons of Zadok; which have kept my charge, which went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray. Eze. 48:11


which have kept... Which remained true to the house of David in the division of the kingdom (1Ki. 12:1-33). Their land will be the most holy in all Israel, for inside their 20 by 50 mile portion the sanctuary will be located (Eze. 48:8, 48:12).

These are the priests that did not commit spiritual adultery by worshipping false gods. They had stayed faithful to God. These are descended from Zadok. Zadok was descended from Eleazer. It appears, the Levite priests had sinned. You remember in a previous lesson, the priests of Zadok were promoted, and the other priests were demoted.
