Notice how this translates the name High Priest as "the prince of the priests"




Acts:23:2

Jubilee Bible 2000
And the prince of the priests, Ananias, commanded those that stood by him to smite him on the mouth.


certainly David is called the king of Israel and the prince but david is the prince of kings not the prince of priests

and is not David in charge of the kingly side of the kingdom and owns all the land

The prince of Ezekiel doing the sacrifices only owns a small portion of land

He will inherit a small parcel of land near the temple. This is the entire land granted to this prince. These Scriptures follow:

Ezekiel 45:6 "And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad, and five and twenty thousand long, over against the oblation of the holy portion: it shall be for the whole house of Israel . (7) And a portion shall be for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the oblation of the holy portion…"









Ezekiel 44:3:

It is for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.







Notice in verse seven the prince only receives a tiny portion of land. Is this the land for David, the King over all the earth? Psalms 2 clearly states that the David will inherit the entire earth, not just a small parcel of land in the nation of Israel :

Psalms 2:6 “Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. (7) I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
(8) Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.”



When you read prince don't always be so sure it is David because there is also the other witness that is called up hither also and he is surnamed the names of the priests....elijah.....joshua....aaron..etc and will be in charge of the sacrifices in the 1000 year millenium because you cant have a levitical priesthood without a High Priest(prince of priests)



1 chronicles 5:2:
For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph's:)


Judah(David) is a prince but Joseph was also a prince and will be in charge of the levitic preisthood hence why there will be 2 witnesses and one of the many surnames of those two is:

Messiah ben David
Messiah ben Joseph

Judah(David)
Joseph
