I have always read Ezek 40:45-6 as saying that those priests who
tended the altar at the time of writing were the sons of Zadok, while
those who more generally tended the temple were "rank and file"
priests. However, I recently came across a translation that took the
position that the sons of Zadok applied to both those who were in
charge of the temple and of the altar. How do people on the list
read the text from a strictly linguistic point of view?


Thanks,


Ian
