Leviticus 8:32 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 8:32

And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread,
&c.] Until the next morning, which could not be eaten by Aaron and his sons:

shall ye burn with fire;
that it might not be corrupted, nor put to common nor superstitious uses.

Leviticus 8:32 In-Context

30 Moses took some of the special oil and some of the blood which was on the altar, and he sprinkled them on Aaron and Aaron's clothes and on Aaron's sons and their clothes. In this way Moses made Aaron, his clothes, his sons, and their clothes holy for the Lord.
31 Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons, "I gave you a command, saying, 'Aaron and his sons will eat these things.' So take the meat and basket of bread from the offering for appointing priests. Boil the meat at the door of the Meeting Tent, and eat it there with the bread.
32 If any of the meat or bread is left, burn it.
33 The time of appointing will last seven days; you must not go outside the entrance of the Meeting Tent until that time is up. Stay there until the time of your appointing is finished.
34 The Lord commanded the things that were done today to remove your sins so you will belong to him.
