Ver. 22-25. And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration, &c.] Or "filling" F2, or "fulnesses"; because, as Jarchi says, these filled and perfected the priests in their priesthood; this was the finishing and consummation of their consecration: what is said in this and the three following verses ( Leviticus 8:23-25 ) is the same as is ordered, ( Exodus 29:19-22 ) and needs no further explanation; (See Gill on Exodus 29:19) (See Gill on Exodus 29:20) (See Gill on Exodus 29:21) (See Gill on Exodus 29:22).
20
He cut the ram in pieces, washed the internal organs and the hind legs with water, and burned the head, the fat, and all the rest of the ram on the altar, just as the Lord had commanded. This burnt offering was a food offering, and its odor was pleasing to the Lord.
22
Then Moses brought the second ram, which was for the ordination of priests, and Aaron and his sons put their hands on its head.
23
Moses killed it and took some of the 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
Then he 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. Moses then threw the rest of the blood on all four sides of the altar.
