Êxodo 29:12 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 29:12

And thou shalt take the blood of the bullock
Being slain, and its blood received into a basin:

and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger;
not sprinkle it with hyssop, as was done in some cases, but put on with the finger dipped into the blood in the basin; as the horns of the altar were the place where the sacrifice was bound, as some think, or however where persons in distress fled for refuge, and laid hold on, it may figure the blood of Christ, being effectual to the cleansing of their souls, and the remission of their sins, through the application of it to them by the Spirit of God:

and pour all the blood beside at the bottom of the altar;
the rest of the blood not put upon the horns of the altar, all that was left of it. Jarchi says, there was a receptacle (for it) that protruded from around the altar, about a cubit from the ground; and here it was that the blood was poured.

Êxodo 29:12 In-Context

10 Farás chegar o novilho diante da tenda da revelação, e Arão e seus filhos porão as mãos sobre a cabeça do novilho;
11 e imolarás o novilho perante o Senhor, � porta da tenda da revelação.
12 Depois tomarás do sangue do novilho, e com o dedo o porás sobre as pontas do altar, e todo o sangue restante derramarás � base do altar.
13 Também tomarás toda a gordura que cobre as entranhas, o redenho do fígado, os dois rins e a gordura que houver neles, e queimá-los-ás sobre o altar;
14 mas a carne do novilho, o seu couro e o seu excremento queimarás fora do arraial; é sacrifício pelo pecado.
