Leviticus 8:19 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 8:19

And he killed it
That is, Moses killed the ram, as the Septuagint version expresses it:

and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about;
as he did the blood of the bullock, ( Leviticus 8:15 ) .

Leviticus 8:19 In-Context

17 But the rest of the bull, including its hide, its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp just as the LORD had commanded him.
18 Then Moses presented the ram for the entirely burned offering, and Aaron and his sons pressed their hands on its head.
19 Moses slaughtered it, then tossed the blood against all sides of the altar.
20 He cut up the ram into pieces, and then completely burned the head, pieces, and fat.
21 After he washed the insides and lower legs with water, Moses completely burned the whole ram on the altar. It was an entirely burned offering for a soothing smell; it was a food gift for the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
