Leviticus 8:27

And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his son's hands,

and waved them [for] a wave offering before the Lord;
(See Gill on Exodus 29:24).

Leviticus 8:27 In-Context

25 But the fat, and the rump, and all the fat that covereth the entrails, and the caul of the liver, and the two kidneys with their fat, and with the right shoulder, he separated.
26 And taking out of the basket of unleavened bread, which was before the Lord, a loaf without leaven, and a cake tempered with oil and a wafer, he put them upon the fat, and the right shoulder:
27 Delivering all to Aaron, and to his sons. Who having lifted them up before the Lord,
28 He took them again from their hands, and burnt them upon the altar of holocaust: because it was the oblation of consecration, for a sweet odour of sacrifice to the Lord.
29 And he took of the ram of consecration, the breast for his portion, elevating it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded him.
