George Leo Haydock, on Ezek 47:13

“Thus saith the Lord God: This is the border, by which you shall possess the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: for Joseph hath a double portion.”

“Double portion. Literally, “cord.” (Haydock) — His two sons would each have a share, as Levi was better provided for. (Worthington) — He had no portion of the land assigned to him by Josue, but here one part is appointed (Calmet) for the sacred ministers and the prince, chap. xlv. 1.”
