Now Jesus is both man and God, both the Prince as in the descendant of David and the King as part of the Trinity.

You are wrong to say that in verse 4 And he brought me by the way of the north gate, in the sight of the house: and I saw, and behold the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord: and I fell on my face. to say this is worship of the tabernacle -- that is wrong, Ezeckiel is worshipping God within.

The tabernacle is but the holding place, holy because it has been filled with the grace of the Lord. It remains holy because it has been graced as such, not because of its own doing

The means by which the Lord has entered the world remains holy -- the Lord, God that is Jesus Christ

To: Cronos
Again ... your interpretive methods are severely flawed; not just flawed ... completely invalid and self-contradictory.

1 Then He brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary, which faces the east; and it was shut. 2 The LORD said to me, “This gate shall be shut; it shall not be opened, and no one shall enter by it, for the LORD God of Israel has entered by it; therefore it shall be shut.

Continue reading in Ezekiel 44 ...

Ez 44:7 when you brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary to profane it

If we apply your method of interpretation, and link sanctuary with Mary ... this would nullify your position in its entirety.

This passage has nothing to do with Mary at all; it is simply describing a vision of the temple that was given to Ezekiel. Only by applying a subjective and allegorical method of reading into the text can you arrive at your interpretation.
