Levítico 9:5 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 9:5

And they brought [that] which Moses commanded before the
tabernacle of the congregation
That is, Aaron and his sons, and all the children of Israel, as the Targum of Jonathan paraphrases it. All the above sacrifices they brought into the court of the tabernacle to be offered up:

and all the congregation drew near, and stood before the Lord;
that is, the elders of Israel, who were called together, ( Leviticus 9:1 ) , the heads of the tribes who represented the people; as many as well could be admitted into the court no doubt were, to be spectators of Aaron and his sons officiating first in their new office, and to see their own sacrifices offered; and they stood over against where was the symbol of the divine Presence; and the Targum of Jonathan says, they stood with a perfect heart; and no doubt but they were heartily sincere and upright in their sacrifices, as they had been in their donations toward the building the tabernacle, and providing things belonging to it; and they stood with all humility, reverence, and devotion.

Levítico 9:5 In-Context

3 Luego hablar谩s a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: "Tomad un macho cabr铆o para la ofrenda por el pecado, y un becerro y un cordero, ambos de un a帽o, sin defecto, para el holocausto,
4 y un buey y un carnero para las ofrendas de paz, para sacrificar delante del SE脩OR, y una ofrenda de cereal mezclado con aceite; porque hoy se aparecer谩 el SE脩OR a vosotros."
5 Llevaron, pues, al frente de la tienda de reuni贸n lo que Mois茅s hab铆a ordenado, y toda la congregaci贸n se acerc贸 y permaneci贸 de pie delante del SE脩OR.
6 Y Mois茅s dijo: Esto es lo que el SE脩OR ha mandado que hag谩is, para que la gloria del SE脩OR se aparezca a vosotros.
7 Entonces Mois茅s dijo a Aar贸n: Ac茅rcate al altar y presenta tu ofrenda por el pecado y tu holocausto, para que hagas expiaci贸n por ti mismo y por el pueblo; luego presenta la ofrenda por el pueblo, para que puedas hacer expiaci贸n por ellos, tal como el SE脩OR ha ordenado.
