The prince - Foretold under the name of David Ezekiel 34:24. The rabbis understood this to be the Messiah.
To eat bread - See Leviticus 2:3; Leviticus 24:9; according to the old Law these feasts belonged only to the priests; none of the rest of the congregation, not even the king, might partake of them. The new system gives to the "prince" a privilege which he did not before possess; the prince, as the representative of the Messiah, standing in a higher position than the kings of old. "To eat bread" may also include participation in the animals sacrificed, portions of which were reserved for those of the people who offered them.
44:3 He - The king might sit before the Lord, others might not.Bread - That part of the sacrifice, which was allowed to the offerer.
