Ezekiel 43:19

And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites, that be of the
seed of Zadok
Who, in Solomon's time, was put in the room of Abiathar; see ( Ezekiel 40:46 ) , his name signifies a "righteous" one, a type he was of Jesus Christ the righteous; and here his seed signify the seed of Christ, such whom he makes priests unto the Lord; to these, in a visionary way, the prophet was to give this altar, for them to serve at, and eat of; and all the rites and ordinances to observe and keep; and the sacrifices to offer on it, after mentioned: which approach unto me, to minister unto me, saith the Lord God;
(See Gill on Ezekiel 40:46): a young bullock for a sin offering:
typical of Christ, strong and laborious, able to bear the sins of his people; to become a sin offering, and to be made sin itself for them.
