Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 44:2

_ _ shut ... not be opened — (Job 12:14; Isaiah 22:22; Revelation 3:7). “Shut” to the people (Exodus 19:21, Exodus 19:22), but open to “the prince” (Ezekiel 44:3), he holding the place of God in political concerns, as the priests do in spiritual. As a mark of respect to an Eastern monarch, the gate by which he enters is thenceforth shut to all other persons (compare Exodus 19:24).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 44:1-3.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 44:2

Shall not be opened — Shall not ordinarily stand open. No man — None of the common people. The Lord — That glory which was the visible sign of his presence.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Ezekiel 44:2

Then said the LORD to me; This gate shall be (a) shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the LORD, the God of Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore it shall be shut.

(a) Meaning, from the common people, but not from the priests nor the prince, read (Ezekiel 46:8-9).
