Exodus 29:31 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 29:31

And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration
For the other ram was cut in pieces and burnt, even the whole of it:

and seethe his flesh in the holy place;
not in that part of the tabernacle which was properly the holy place, as distinguished from the holy of holies, and from the court of the tabernacle; for in that there was no convenience for boiling, but in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation, even at the door of it, as in ( Leviticus 8:31 ) ( Ezekiel 46:19-24 ) .

Exodus 29:31 In-Context

29 Aaron's holy clothes should be passed on to his sons after him. His sons should be anointed in them and ordained in them.
30 The son who is priest in his place should wear them seven days when he comes into the meeting tent to minister in the sanctuary.
31 Take the ram for the ordination and boil its meat in a holy place.
32 Aaron and his sons will eat the ram's meat and the bread that is in the basket at the meeting tent's entrance.
33 They alone should eat the food that was used to purify them, to ordain them, and to make them holy. No one else should eat it because it is holy.
