And the prince shall enter by way of the porch of the gate from the outside, and stand by the gatepost. The priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings. He shall bow down at the threshold of the gate. Then he shall go out, but the gate shall not be shut until evening.

Then He brought me back to the outer gate of the sanctuary which faces toward the east. And it was shut.

As for the prince, because he is the prince, he may sit in it to eat bread before Jehovah; he shall enter by way of the porch of the gate, and go out the same way.

And He is the Head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn out from the dead, that in all things He may be preeminent.
