Vayikra 8:31

31 And Moshe said unto Aharon and to his Banim, Cook the basar at the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed: and there eat it with the lechem that is in the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, Aharon and his Banim shall eat it.

Vayikra 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 ) .

Vayikra 8:31 In-Context

29 And Moshe took the breast, and waved it for a tenufah before Hashem: it was Moshe’s share of the ram of ordination; just as Hashem commanded Moshe.
30 And Moshe took of the shemen hamishchah, and of the dahm which was upon the Mizbe’ach, and sprinkled it upon Aharon, and upon his garments, and upon his Banim, and upon the garments of his Banim with him; and he set apart as kodesh Aharon, and his garments, and his Banim, and the garments of his Banim with him.
31 And Moshe said unto Aharon and to his Banim, Cook the basar at the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed: and there eat it with the lechem that is in the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, Aharon and his Banim shall eat it.
32 And that which remaineth of the basar and of the lechem shall ye burn with eish.
33 And ye shall not go out of the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed in seven days, until the days of your ordination be at an end: for seven days shall he fill your hand [consecrate you in ordination as kohanim].
