Ver. 22-25. And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration, &c.] Or "filling" F2, or "fulnesses"; because, as Jarchi says, these filled and perfected the priests in their priesthood; this was the finishing and consummation of their consecration: what is said in this and the three following verses ( Leviticus 8:23-25 ) is the same as is ordered, ( Exodus 29:19-22 ) and needs no further explanation; (See Gill on Exodus 29:19) (See Gill on Exodus 29:20) (See Gill on Exodus 29:21) (See Gill on Exodus 29:22).
20
And he cut the ram into pieces; and Moshe burned the head, and the pieces, and the chelev (fat).
21
And he washed the innards and the legs in mayim; and Moshe burned the whole ram upon the Mizbe’ach; it was an olah for a re’ach nicho’ach, and an offering made by eish unto Hashem; just as Hashem commanded Moshe.
22
And he brought the other ram, the ram of ordination; and Aharon and his Banim laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
23
And he slaughtered (shachat) it; and Moshe took of the dahm of it, and put it upon the lobe of Aharon’s right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the bohen of his right foot.
24
And he brought Aharon’s Banim, and Moshe put of the dahm upon the lobe of their right ear, and upon the thumbs of their right hands, and upon the bohen of their right feet: and Moshe sprinkled the dahm upon the Mizbe’ach around.
