Ezekiel 36:28

36:28 Then you will live in the land I gave to your fathers; you will be my people, and I will be your God.

Ezekiel 39:19

39:19 You will eat fat until you are full, and drink blood until you are drunk, at my slaughter which I have made for you.

Ezekiel 44:8

44:8 You have not kept charge of my holy things, but you have assigned foreigners to keep charge of my sanctuary for you.

sn This promise reflects the ancient covenantal ideal (see Exod 6:7).

sn Eating the fat and drinking blood were God’s exclusive rights in Israelite sacrifices (Lev 3:17).

tn Or “sacrifice” (so also in the rest of this verse).

tc Instead of an energic nun (ן), the text may have read a third masculine plural suffix ם (mem), “them,” which was confused with ן (nun) in the old script. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:621.
