Leviticus 1:
2 Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'When any of you brings an offering to the
Yehowah, bring as your offering an animal from either the herd or the flock.
3 If the offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to offer a male without
defect. He must present it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting so that it will be
acceptable to the Yehowah (not so that the Lord will let you know the animal is
acceptable or not before sacrificing, rather this is the only place where you can
sacrifice in order for your offering to be excepted by the Lord).
4 He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on his
behalf to make atonement for him (v. 4 is no longer necessary, because Yehoshua
is our sin offering from Yehowah according to Isaiah the prophet in Chapter 53, and
Yehoshua himself when he picked up the cup on the night he was betrayed by Judas,
and said "this cup is the new covenant in my blood, shed for the forgiveness of sins",
not "for the annulment of the Torah").
5 He is to slaughter the young bull before Yehowah, and then Aaron's sons the priests
shall bring the blood and sprinkle it against the altar on all sides at the entrance to
the Tent of Meeting.
6 He is to skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.
7 The sons of Aaron the priest are to put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the
fire.
8 Then Aaron's sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, including the head and the fat,
on the burning wood that is on the altar.
9 He is to wash the inner parts and the legs with water, and the priest is to burn all of
it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, an aroma pleasing to
Yehowah.
10 If the offering is a burnt offering from the flock, from either the sheep or the
goats, he is to offer a male without defect.
11 He is to slaughter it at the north side of the altar before Yehowah, and Aaron's sons
the priests shall sprinkle its blood against the altar on all sides.
12 He is to cut it into pieces, and the priest shall arrange them, including the head and
the fat, on the burning wood that is on the altar.
13 He is to wash the inner parts and the legs with water, and the priest is to bring all
of it and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, an
aroma pleasing to Yehowah.
14 If the offering to Yehowah is a burnt offering of birds, he is to offer a dove or a
young pigeon.
15 The priest shall bring it to the altar, wring off the head and burn it on the altar;
its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar.
16 He is to remove the crop with its contents and throw it to the east side of the altar,
where the ashes are.
17 He shall tear it open by the wings, not severing it completely, and then the priest
shall burn it on the wood that is on the fire on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an
offering made by fire, an aroma pleasing to Yehowah.
Leviticus 2
1 When someone brings a grain offering (this is not the same as the daily meal or grain
offering, for that offering must be totally burned up) to Yehowah, his offering is to
be of fine flour. He is to pour oil on it, put incense on it
2 and take it to Aaron's sons the priests. The priest shall take a handful of the fine
flour and oil, together with all the incense, and burn this as a memorial portion on the
altar, an offering made by fire, an aroma pleasing to Yehowah.
3 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of
the offerings made to Yehowah by fire.
4 If you bring a grain offering baked in an oven, it is to consist of fine flour: cakes
made without yeast and mixed with oil, or wafers made without yeast and spread with
oil.
5 If your grain offering is prepared on a griddle, it is to be made of fine flour mixed
with oil, and without yeast.
6 Crumble it and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.
7 If your grain offering is cooked in a pan, it is to be made of fine flour and oil.
8 Bring the grain offering made of these things to Yehowah; present it to the priest,
who shall take it to the altar.
9 He shall take out the memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the
altar as an offering made by fire, an aroma pleasing to Yehowah.
10 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part
of the offerings made to Yehowah by fire.
11 Every grain offering you bring to Yehowah must be made without yeast, for you are
not to burn any yeast or honey in an offering made to Yehowah by fire.
12 You may bring them to Yehowah as an offering of the firstfruits, but they are not
to be offered on the altar as a pleasing aroma.
13 Season all your grain offerings with salt. Do not leave the salt of the covenant of
your God out of your grain offerings; add salt to all your offerings.
14 If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to Yehowah, offer crushed heads of new
grain roasted in the fire.
15 Put oil and incense on it; it is a grain offering.
16 The priest shall burn the memorial portion of the crushed grain and the oil, together
with all the incense, as an offering made to Yehowah by fire.
Leviticus 3
1 If someone's offering is a fellowship offering, and he offers an animal from the herd,
whether male or female, he is to present before Yehowah an animal without defect.
2 He is to lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it at the entrance to
the Tent of Meeting. Then Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood against
the altar on all sides.
3 From the fellowship offering he is to bring a sacrifice made to Yehowah by fire: all
the fat that covers the inner parts or is connected to them,
4 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the covering of the liver, which
he will remove with the kidneys.
5 Then Aaron's sons are to burn it on the altar on top of the burnt offering that is on
the burning wood, as an offering made by fire, an aroma pleasing to Yehowah.
6 If he offers an animal from the flock as a fellowship offering to Yehowah, he is to
offer a male or female without defect.
7 If he offers a lamb, he is to present it before Yehowah.
8 He is to lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it in front of the Tent
of Meeting. Then Aaron's sons shall sprinkle its blood against the altar on all sides.
9 From the fellowship offering he is to bring a sacrifice made to Yehowah by fire: its
fat, the entire fat tail cut off close to the backbone, all the fat that covers the inner
parts or is connected to them,
10 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the covering of the liver, which
he will remove with the kidneys.
11 The priest shall burn them on the altar as food, an offering made to Yehowah by
fire.
12 If his offering is a goat, he is to present it before Yehowah.
13 He is to lay his hand on its head and slaughter it in front of the Tent of Meeting.
Then Aaron's sons shall sprinkle its blood against the altar on all sides.
14 From what he offers he is to make this offering to Yehowah by fire: all the fat that
covers the inner parts or is connected to them,
15 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the covering of the liver, which
he will remove with the kidneys.
16 The priest shall burn them on the altar as food, an offering made by fire, a pleasing
aroma. All the fat is Yehowah's.
17 This is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live:
You must not eat any fat or any blood.
Leviticus 4:
1 Yehowah said to Moses,
2 "Say to the Israelites: 'When anyone sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden
in any of the Yehowah's commands-
3 If the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, he must bring to Yehowah a
young bull without defect as a sin offering for the sin he has committed.
4 He is to present the bull at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before Yehowah. He
is to lay his hand on its head and slaughter it before Yehowah.
5 Then the anointed priest shall take some of the bull's blood and carry it into the
Tent of Meeting.
6 He is to dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before
Yehowah, in front of the curtain of the sanctuary.
7 The priest shall then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant
incense that is before Yehowah in the Tent of Meeting. The rest of the bull's blood
he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the
Tent of Meeting.
8 He shall remove all the fat from the bull of the sin offering—the fat that covers the
inner parts or is connected to them,
9 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the covering of the liver, which
he will remove with the kidneys-
10 just as the fat is removed from the ox sacrificed as a fellowship offering. Then the
priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering.
11 But the hide of the bull and all its flesh, as well as the head and legs, the inner parts
and offal-
12 that is, all the rest of the bull—he must take outside the camp to a place
ceremonially clean, where the ashes are thrown, and burn it in a wood fire on the
ash heap.
13 If the whole Israelite community sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in
any of Yehowah commands, even though the community is unaware of the matter, they
are guilty.
14 When they become aware of the sin they committed, the assembly must bring a
young bull as a sin offering and present it before the Tent of Meeting.
15 The elders of the community are to lay their hands on the bull's head before
Yehowah, and the bull shall be slaughtered before Yehowah.
16 Then the anointed priest is to take some of the bull's blood into the Tent of
Meeting.
17 He shall dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle it before Yehowah seven times in
front of the curtain.
18 He is to put some of the blood on the horns of the altar that is before Yehowah in
the Tent of Meeting. The rest of the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar
of burnt offering at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
19 He shall remove all the fat from it and burn it on the altar,
20 and do with this bull just as he did with the bull for the sin offering. In this way
the priest will make atonement for them, and they will be forgiven.
21 Then he shall take the bull outside the camp and burn it as he burned the first bull.
This is the sin offering for the community.
22 When a leader sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the
commands of Yehowah his God, he is guilty.
23 When he is made aware of the sin he committed, he must bring as his offering a male
goat without defect.
24 He is to lay his hand on the goat's head and slaughter it at the place where the
burnt offering is slaughtered before Yehowah. It is a sin offering.
25 Then the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and
put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out the rest of the blood
at the base of the altar.
26 He shall burn all the fat on the altar as he burned the fat of the fellowship
offering. In this way the priest will make atonement for the man's sin, and he will
be forgiven.
27 If a member of the community sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any
of Yehowah's commands, he is guilty.
28 When he is made aware of the sin he committed, he must bring as his offering for
the sin he committed a female goat without defect.
29 He is to lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and slaughter it at the place of
the burnt offering.
30 Then the priest is to take some of the blood with his finger and put it on the horns
of the altar of burnt offering and pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the
altar.
31 He shall remove all the fat, just as the fat is removed from the fellowship offering,
and the priest shall burn it on the altar as an aroma pleasing to Yehowah. In this way
the priest will make atonement for him, and he will be forgiven.
32 If he brings a lamb as his sin offering, he is to bring a female without defect.
33 He is to lay his hand on its head and slaughter it for a sin offering at the place
where the burnt offering is slaughtered.
34 Then the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger and
put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out the rest of the blood
at the base of the altar.
35 He shall remove all the fat, just as the fat is removed from the lamb of the
fellowship offering, and the priest shall burn it on the altar on top of the offerings
made to Yehowah by fire. In this way the priest will make atonement for him for the
sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.
Leviticus 5:
1 If a person sins because he does not speak up when he hears a public charge to
testify regarding something he has seen or learned about, he will be held responsible.
2 Or if a person touches anything ceremonially unclean—whether the carcasses of
unclean wild animals or of unclean livestock or of unclean creatures that move along
the ground—even though he is unaware of it, he has become unclean and is guilty.
3 Or if he touches human uncleanness—anything that would make him unclean—even
though he is unaware of it, then made aware, he was all the time guilty (My version
goes along with verses 1-2 that show guilt regardless of knowledge, because either
the command is broken or it is kept).
4 Or if a person thoughtlessly takes an oath to do anything, whether good or evil—in
an matter one might carelessly swear about—even though he is unaware of it, in any
case even when finally made aware he is guilty (My version goes along with verses
1-2 that show guilt regardless of knowledge, because either the command is broken
or it is kept).
5 When anyone is guilty in any of these ways, he must confess in what way he has sinned
6 and, as a penalty for the sin he has committed, he must bring to Yehowah a female
lamb or goat from the flock as a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement
for him for his sin.
7 If he cannot afford a lamb, he is to bring two doves or two young pigeons to Yehowah
as a penalty for his sin—one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.
8 He is to bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one for the sin offering.
He is to wring its head from its neck, not severing it completely,
9 and is to sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering against the side of the altar;
the rest of the blood must be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin
offering.
10 The priest shall then offer the other as a burnt offering in the prescribed way an
make atonement for him for the sin he has committed, and he will be forgiven.
11 If, however, he cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, he is to bring as an
offering for his sin a tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering. He must not
put oil or incense on it, because it is a sin offering.
12 He is to bring it to the priest, who shall take a handful of it as a memorial portion
and burn it on the altar on top of the offerings made to Yehowah by fire. It is a sin
offering.
13 In this way the priest will make atonement for him for any of these sins he has
committed, and he will be forgiven. The rest of the offering will belong to the
priest, as in the case of the grain offering.
The Guilt Offering
14 Yehowah said to Moses:
15 "When a person commits a violation and sins unintentionally in regard to any of
Yehowah's holy things, he is to bring to Yehowah as a penalty a ram from the flock,
one without defect and of the proper value in silver, according to the sanctuary
shekel. It is a guilt offering.
16 He must make restitution for what he has failed to do in regard to the holy things,
add a fifth of the value to that and give it all to the priest, who will make atonement
for him with the ram as a guilt offering, and he will be forgiven.
17 If a person sins and does what is forbidden in any of Yehowah's commands, even
though he does not know it, he is guilty and will be held responsible (thus proving
verses 3 & 4, for here it also says regardless of ignorance you are guilty).
18 He is to bring to the priest as a guilt offering a ram from the flock, one without
defect and of the proper value. In this way the priest will make atonement for him
for the wrong he has committed unintentionally, and he will be forgiven.
19 It is a guilt offering; he has been guilty of wrongdoing against Yehowah."
Leviticus 6:
1 Yehowah said to Moses:
2 "If anyone sins and is unfaithful to Yehowah by deceiving his neighbor about
something entrusted to him or left in his care or stolen, or if he cheats him,
3 or if he finds lost property and lies about it, or if he swears falsely, or if he commits
any such sin that people may do-
4 when he thus sins and becomes guilty, he must return what he has stolen or taken by
extortion, or what was entrusted to him, or the lost property he found,
5 or whatever it was he swore falsely about. He must make restitution in full, add a
fifth of the value to it and give it all to the owner on the day he presents his guilt
offering.
6 And as a penalty he must bring to the priest, that is, to Yehowah, his guilt offering, a
ram from the flock, one without defect and of the proper value.
7 In this way the priest will make atonement for him before Yehowah, and he will be
forgiven for any of these things he did that made him guilty."
The Burnt Offering
8 Yehowah said to Moses:
9 "Give Aaron and his sons this command: 'These are the regulations for the burnt
offering: The burnt offering is to remain on the altar hearth throughout the night,
till morning, and the fire must be kept burning on the altar.
10 The priest shall then put on his linen clothes, with linen undergarments next to his
body, and shall remove the ashes of the burnt offering that the fire has consumed on
the altar and place them beside the altar.
11 Then he is to take off these clothes and put on others, and carry the ashes outside
the camp to a place that is ceremonially clean.
12 The fire on the altar must be kept burning; it must not go out. Every morning the
priest is to add firewood and arrange the burnt offering on the fire and burn the
fat of the fellowship offerings on it.
13 The fire must be kept burning on the altar continuously; it must not go out.
The Grain Offering
14 These are the regulations for the grain offering: Aaron's sons are to bring it before
Yehowah, in front of the altar.
15 The priest is to take a handful of fine flour and oil, together with all the incense on
the grain offering, and burn the memorial portion on the altar as an aroma pleasing
to Yehowah.
16 Aaron and his sons shall eat the rest of it, but it is to be eaten without yeast in a
holy place; they are to eat it in the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting.
17 It must not be baked with yeast; I have given it as their share of the offerings
made to me by fire. Like the sin offering and the guilt offering, it is most holy.
18 Any male descendant of Aaron may eat it. It is his regular share of the offerings
made to Yehowah by fire for the generations to come. Whatever touches them will
become holy.
19 Yehowah also said to Moses,
20 "This is the offering Aaron (or the future high priest) and his sons are to bring to
Yehowah on the day he is anointed: a tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a regular
grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening.
21 Prepare it with oil on a griddle; bring it well-mixed and present the grain offering
broken in pieces as an aroma pleasing to Yehowah.
22 The son who is to succeed him as anointed priest shall prepare it. It is Yehowah's
regular share and is to be burned completely.
23 Every grain offering of a priest shall be burned completely; it must not be eaten."
The Sin Offering (Jesus' or Yehoshua's blood did away with this command)
24 The LORD said to Moses,
25 "Say to Aaron and his sons: 'These are the regulations for the sin offering: The sin
offering is to be slaughtered before Yehowah in the place the burnt offering is
slaughtered; it is most holy.
26 The priest who offers it shall eat it; it is to be eaten in a holy place, in the
courtyard of the Tent of Meeting.
27 Whatever touches any of the flesh will become holy, and if any of the blood is
spattered on a garment, you must wash it in a holy place.
28 The clay pot the meat is cooked in must be broken; but if it is cooked in a bronze
pot, the pot is to be scoured and rinsed with water.
29 Any male in a priest's family may eat it; it is most holy.
30 But any sin offering whose blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make
atonement in the Holy Place must not be eaten; it must be burned.
Leviticus 7:
The Guilt Offering
1 These are the regulations for the guilt offering, which is most holy:
2 The guilt offering is to be slaughtered in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered,
and its blood is to be sprinkled against the altar on all sides.
3 All its fat shall be offered: the fat tail and the fat that covers the inner parts,
4 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the covering of the liver, which is to
be removed with the kidneys.
5 The priest shall burn them on the altar as an offering made to the LORD by fire. It
is a guilt offering.
6 Any male in a priest's family may eat it, but it must be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy.
7 The same law applies to both the sin offering and the guilt offering: They belong to the
priest who makes atonement with them.
8 The priest who offers a burnt offering for anyone may keep its hide for himself.
9 Every grain offering baked in an oven or cooked in a pan or on a griddle belongs to the
priest who offers it,
10 and every grain offering, whether mixed with oil or dry, belongs equally to all the sons
of Aaron.
The Fellowship Offering
11 These are the regulations for the fellowship offering a person may present to the LORD :
12 If he offers it as an expression of thankfulness, then along with this thank offering he
is to offer cakes of bread made without yeast and mixed with oil, wafers made without
yeast and spread with oil, and cakes of fine flour well-kneaded and mixed with oil.
13 Along with his fellowship offering of thanksgiving he is to present an offering with
cakes of bread made with yeast.
14 He is to bring one of each kind as an offering, a contribution to the LORD; it belongs
to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the fellowship offerings.
15 The meat of his fellowship offering of thanksgiving must be eaten on the day it is
offered; he must leave none of it till morning.
16 If, however, his offering is the result of a vow or is a freewill offering, the sacrifice
shall be eaten on the day he offers it, but anything left over may be eaten on the next day.
17 Any meat of the sacrifice left over till the third day must be burned up.
18 If any meat of the fellowship offering is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted.
It will not be credited to the one who offered it, for it is impure; the person who eats any
of it will be held responsible.
19 Meat that touches anything ceremonially unclean must not be eaten; it must be burned
up. As for other meat, anyone ceremonially clean may eat it.
20 But if anyone who is unclean eats any meat of the fellowship offering belonging to the
LORD, that person must be cut off from his people.
21 If anyone touches something unclean—whether human uncleanness or an unclean animal
or any unclean, detestable thing—and then eats any of the meat of the fellowship offering
belonging to the LORD, that person must be cut off from his people.
Eating Fat and Blood Forbidden
22 The LORD said to Moses,
23 "Say to the Israelites: 'Do not eat any of the fat of cattle, sheep or goats.
24 The fat of an animal found dead or torn by wild animals may be used for any other purpose,
but you must not eat it.
25 Anyone who eats the fat of an animal from which an offering by fire may be made to the
LORD must be cut off from his people.
26 And wherever you live, you must not eat the blood of any bird or animal.
27 If anyone eats blood, that person must be cut off from his people.' "
The Priests' Share
28 The LORD said to Moses,
29 "Say to the Israelites: 'Anyone who brings a fellowship offering to the LORD is to bring
part of it as his sacrifice to the LORD.
30 With his own hands he is to bring the offering made to the LORD by fire; he is to bring
the fat, together with the breast, and wave the breast before the LORD as a wave offering.
31 The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast belongs to Aaron and his sons.
32 You are to give the right thigh of your fellowship offerings to the priest as a contribution.
33 The son of Aaron who offers the blood and the fat of the fellowship offering shall have
the right thigh as his share.
34 From the fellowship offerings of the Israelites, I have taken the breast that is waved and
the thigh that is presented and have given them to Aaron the priest and his sons as their
regular share from the Israelites.'
35 This is the portion of the offerings made to the LORD by fire that were allotted to Aaron
and his sons on the day they were presented to serve the LORD as priests.
36 On the day they were anointed, the LORD commanded that the Israelites give this to them
as their regular share for the generations to come.
37 These, then, are the regulations for the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin
offering, the guilt offering, the ordination offering and the fellowship offering,
38 which the LORD gave Moses on Mount Sinai on the day he commanded the Israelites
to bring their offerings to the LORD, in the Desert of Sinai.
Leviticus 8:
1 The LORD said to Moses,
2 "Bring Aaron and his sons, their garments, the anointing oil, the bull for the sin offering,
the two rams and the basket containing bread made without yeast,
3 and gather the entire assembly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting."
4 Moses did as the LORD commanded him, and the assembly gathered at the entrance to
the Tent of Meeting.
5 Moses said to the assembly, "This is what the LORD has commanded to be done."
6 Then Moses brought Aaron and his sons forward and washed them with water.
7 He put the tunic on Aaron, tied the sash around him, clothed him with the robe and put
the ephod on him. He also tied the ephod to him by its skillfully woven waistband; so it
was fastened on him.
8 He placed the breastpiece on him and put the Urim and Thummim in the breastpiece.
9 Then he placed the turban on Aaron's head and set the gold plate, the sacred diadem,
on the front of it, as the LORD commanded Moses.
10 Then Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it, and
so consecrated them.
11 He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar and all its utensils
and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.
12 He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head and anointed him to consecrate him.
13 Then he brought Aaron's sons forward, put tunics on them, tied sashes around them and
put headbands on them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
14 He then presented the bull for the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands
on its head.
15 Moses slaughtered the bull and took some of the blood, and with his finger he put it on
all the horns of the altar to purify the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base
of the altar. So he consecrated it to make atonement for it.
16 Moses also took all the fat around the inner parts, the covering of the liver, and both kidneys
and their fat, and burned it on the altar.
17 But the bull with its hide and its flesh and its offal he burned up outside the camp, as the
LORD commanded Moses.
18 He then presented the ram for the burnt offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands
on its head.
19 Then Moses slaughtered the ram and sprinkled the blood against the altar on all sides.
20 He cut the ram into pieces and burned the head, the pieces and the fat.
21 He washed the inner parts and the legs with water and burned the whole ram on the altar
as a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma, an offering made to the LORD by fire, as the LORD
commanded Moses.
22 He then presented the other ram, the ram for the ordination, and Aaron and his sons laid
their hands on its head.
23 Moses slaughtered the ram and took some of its blood and put it on the lobe of Aaron's
right ear, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot.
24 Moses also brought Aaron's sons forward and put some of the blood on the lobes of their
right ears, on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet.
Then he sprinkled the blood against the altar on all sides.
25 He took the fat, the fat tail, all the fat around the inner parts, the covering of the liver, both
kidneys and their fat and the right thigh.
26 Then from the basket of bread made without yeast, which was before the LORD, he took
a cake of bread, and one made with oil, and a wafer; he put these on the fat portions and
on the right thigh.
27 He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and waved them before the LORD as
a wave offering.
28 Then Moses took them from their hands and burned them on the altar on top of the burnt
offering as an ordination offering, a pleasing aroma, an offering made to the LORD by fire.
29 He also took the breast—Moses' share of the ordination ram—and waved it before the
LORD as a wave offering, as the LORD commanded Moses.
30 Then Moses took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood from the altar and sprinkled
them on Aaron and his garments and on his sons and their garments. So he consecrated
Aaron and his garments and his sons and their garments.
31 Moses then said to Aaron and his sons, "Cook the meat at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting
and eat it there with the bread from the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying,
'Aaron and his sons are to eat it.'
32 Then burn up the rest of the meat and the bread.
33 Do not leave the entrance to the Tent of Meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination
are completed, for your ordination will last seven days.
34 What has been done today was commanded by the LORD to make atonement for you.
35 You must stay at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting day and night for seven days and do
what the LORD requires, so you will not die; for that is what I have been commanded."
36 So Aaron and his sons did everything the LORD commanded through Moses.
