Éxodo 29:2-12

2 Luego, con harina de trigo selecta y sin levadura, prepara panes, panes planos mezclados con aceite de oliva y obleas untadas con aceite.

3 Pon todo en una sola cesta y preséntalo en la entrada del tabernáculo junto con el becerro y los dos carneros.

4 »Lleva a Aarón y a sus hijos a la entrada del tabernáculo,
y lávalos con agua.

5 Ponle a Aarón sus vestiduras sacerdotales: la túnica, el manto que se usa con el efod, el efod y el pectoral. Después cíñele la faja decorativa del efod.

6 Colócale el turbante sobre la cabeza y fija el medallón sagrado en el turbante.

7 Luego úngelo derramando el aceite de la unción sobre su cabeza.

8 A continuación, trae a sus hijos y vístelos con sus túnicas.

9 Cíñeles las fajas a Aarón y a sus hijos, y colócales los gorros especiales. Entonces el derecho del sacerdocio les pertenecerá por ley para siempre. De esta manera realizarás la ordenación de Aarón y de sus hijos.

10 »Lleva el becerro a la entrada del tabernáculo, donde Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del animal.

11 Luego mata el becerro en presencia del Señor
, a la entrada del tabernáculo.

12 Con tu dedo, unta parte de la sangre sobre los cuernos del altar, y derrama el resto de la sangre al pie del altar.

Éxodo 29:2-12 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EXODUS 29

This chapter gives an account of the form and order of the consecration of Aaron and his sons to the priestly office; preparatory to which Moses is ordered to take a young bullock, two rams, bread, cakes, and wafers unleavened, and bring them and Aaron and his sons to the door of the congregation, where the ceremony was to be publicly performed, and which began with washing them, Ex 29:1-4 and then proceeded by putting on the priestly garments directed to be made in the preceding chapter, first on Aaron, who also was anointed, Ex 29:5-7 and then upon his sons, Ex 29:8,9 after which the bullock and the two rams were to be slain, and orders are given what was to be done with their blood, and the several parts of them, as well as with the cakes and wafers, Ex 29:10-23 and directions are given to make these wave and heave offerings, Ex 29:24-28 and that the garments of Aaron's should be his son's that succeeded him, Ex 29:29,30, and that the flesh of the ram of consecration with the bread should be eaten by Aaron and his sons and no other, Ex 29:31-35, the altar also where they were to officiate was to be cleansed, sanctified, and an atonement made for it, Ex 29:36,37 after which two lambs every day, morning and evening, were to be offered on it in all succeeding generations, Ex 29:38-42, and the chapter is closed with a promise that the Lord would meet with the children of Israel at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and would sanctify the tabernacle, and dwell among them, and be their God, Ex 29:43-46.
