Leviticus 8:26 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 8:26

And out of the basket of unleavened bread
Moses was ordered to take, ( Leviticus 8:2 ) ,

that [was] before the Lord;
being brought to the tabernacle, where now the Lord had taken up his residence:

he took one unleavened cake;
which had no oil in it or upon it:

and a cake of oiled bread;
which was mixed and tempered with oil:

and one wafer;
which was anointed with oil:

and put them upon the fat, and upon the right shoulder;
of the ram of consecration, which he took from it, and laid the cakes uppermost upon them.

Leviticus 8:26 In-Context

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.
25 He took the fat, the fat tail, all the fat covering the internal organs, the best part of the liver, the kidneys with the fat on them, and the right hind leg.
26 Then he took one loaf of bread from the basket of unleavened bread dedicated to the Lord, one loaf made with oil, and one thin cake, and he put them on top of the fat and the right hind leg.
27 He put all of this food in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and they presented it as a special gift to the Lord.
28 Then Moses took the food from them and burned it on the altar, on top of the burnt offering, as an ordination offering. This was a food offering, and its odor was pleasing to the Lord.
