Leviticus 9:6 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 9:6

This [is] the thing which the Lord commanded that ye should
do
Namely, what they had done, bring the creatures and things for sacrifice they had:

and the glory of the Lord shall appear unto you;
either Christ, the brightness of his Father's glory, in an human form, as a presage of his future incarnation, as he frequently did; or some more than ordinary refulgence of glory breaking out of the holy of holies, where God had now taken up his dwelling between the cherubim; or, as Aben Ezra explains it, the fire that should go out from him, and consume the sacrifice, which would be a demonstration of his presence with them, and of his acceptance of the sacrifice.

Leviticus 9:6 In-Context

4 and a bull and a ram for a Peace-Offering, to be sacrificed before God with a Grain-Offering mixed with oil, because God will appear to you today."
5 They brought the things that Moses had ordered to the Tent of Meeting. The whole congregation came near and stood before God.
6 Moses said, "This is what God commanded you to do so that the Shining Glory of God will appear to you."
7 Moses instructed Aaron, "Approach the Altar and sacrifice your Absolution-Offering and your Whole-Burnt-Offering. Make atonement for yourself and for the people. Sacrifice the offering that is for the people and make atonement for them, just as God commanded."
8 Aaron approached the Altar and slaughtered the calf as an Absolution-Offering for himself.
