Exodus 29:31 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 29:31

And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration
For the other ram was cut in pieces and burnt, even the whole of it:

and seethe his flesh in the holy place;
not in that part of the tabernacle which was properly the holy place, as distinguished from the holy of holies, and from the court of the tabernacle; for in that there was no convenience for boiling, but in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation, even at the door of it, as in ( Leviticus 8:31 ) ( Ezekiel 46:19-24 ) .

Exodus 29:31 In-Context

29 “Aaron’s sacred garments must be preserved for his descendants who succeed him, and they will wear them when they are anointed and ordained.
30 The descendant who succeeds him as high priest will wear these clothes for seven days as he ministers in the Tabernacle and the Holy Place.
31 “Take the ram used in the ordination ceremony, and boil its meat in a sacred place.
32 Then Aaron and his sons will eat this meat, along with the bread in the basket, at the Tabernacle entrance.
33 They alone may eat the meat and bread used for their purification in the ordination ceremony. No one else may eat them, for these things are set apart and holy.
