Leviticus 8:27 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 8:27

And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his son's hands,
&c.] The fat and the right shoulder, with the cakes upon them:

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

Leviticus 8:27 In-Context

25 He removed the fat, the fat tail and all of the fat around the inside parts. He removed the covering of the liver. He removed both kidneys and their fat. And he removed the right thigh.
26 Then he took a flat cake of bread from the basket of bread that was made without yeast. The basket was in front of the Lord. Moses took a cake of bread that was made with olive oil. He also took a wafer. He put all of it on the fat parts of the ram and on its right thigh.
27 He put everything in the hands of Aaron and his sons. He told them to lift it up and wave it in front of the LORD as a wave offering.
28 Then Moses took it from their hands. He burned it on the altar on top of the burnt offering. It was the offering that was sacrificed to prepare the priests for serving the Lord. It had a pleasant smell. It was an offering that was made to the LORD with fire.
29 Moses also lifted the ram's breast up and waved it in front of the LORD as a wave offering. The breast was Moses' share of the ram that was sacrificed to prepare the priests for serving the Lord. Moses did everything just as the LORD had commanded him.
