Adam Clarke Bible Commentary
Leviticus 8:1
CHAPTER VIII
Moses is commanded to consecrate Aaron and his sons, 1-3.
Moses convenes the congregation; washes, clothes, and anoints
Aaron, 4-12.
He also clothes Aaron's sons, 13.
Offers a bullock for them as a sin-offering, 14-17.
And a ram for a burnt-offering, 18-21.
And another ram for a consecration-offering, 22-24.
The fat, with cakes of unleavened bread, and the right shoulder
of the ram, he offers as a wave-offering, and afterwards burns,
25-28.
The breast, which was the part of Moses, he also waves, 29.
And sprinkles oil and blood upon Aaron and his sons, 30.
The flesh of the consecration ram is to be boiled and eaten at
the door of the tabernacle, 31, 32.
Moses commands Aaron and his sons to abide seven days at the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, which they do
accordingly, 33-36.
