Leviticus 8:31 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 8:31

And Moses said unto Aaron, and to his sons
After he had offered the bullock, the two rams, and cakes of unleavened bread for the consecration of them:

boil the flesh at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation;
the remainder of the flesh of the ram of consecration, which was all but the fat, the shoulder, and the breast:

and there eat it with the bread that is in the basket of
consecration;
what was left of that, there being one cake of a sort taken out of it and burnt:

as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall eat it;
see ( Exodus 29:32 ) .

Leviticus 8:31 In-Context

29 Then Moses took the breast and lifted it up as a special offering to the LORD . This was Moses’ portion of the ram of ordination, just as the LORD had commanded him.

30 Next Moses took some of the anointing oil and some of the blood that was on the altar, and he sprinkled them on Aaron and his garments and on his sons and their garments. In this way, he made Aaron and his sons and their garments holy.

31 Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons, “Boil the remaining meat of the offerings at the Tabernacle entrance, and eat it there, along with the bread that is in the basket of offerings for the ordination, just as I commanded when I said, ‘Aaron and his sons will eat it.’

32 Any meat or bread that is left over must then be burned up.

33 You must not leave the Tabernacle entrance for seven days, for that is when the ordination ceremony will be completed.
