Éxodo 29:7-17

7 Y tomarás el aceite de la unción, y derramarás sobre su cabeza, y le ungirás.
8 Y harás llegar sus hijos, y les vestirás las túnicas.
9 Y les ceñirás el cinto, á Aarón y á sus hijos, y les atarás los chapeos (tiaras), y tendrán el sacerdocio por fuero perpetuo: y henchirás las manos de Aarón y de sus hijos.
10 Y harás llegar el becerro delante del tabernáculo del testimonio, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del becerro.
11 Y matarás el becerro delante de Jehová á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio.
12 Y tomarás de la sangre del becerro, y pondrás sobre los cuernos del altar con tu dedo, y derramarás toda la demás sangre al pie del altar.
13 Tomarás también todo el sebo que cubre los intestinos, y el redaño de sobre el hígado, y los dos riñones, y el sebo que está sobre ellos, y los quemarás sobre el altar.
14 Empero consumirás á fuego fuera del campo la carne del becerro, y su pellejo, y su estiércol: es expiación.
15 Asimismo tomarás el un carnero, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del carnero.
16 Y matarás el carnero, y tomarás su sangre, y rociarás sobre el altar alrededor.
17 Y cortarás el carnero en pedazos, y lavarás sus intestinos y sus piernas, y las pondrás sobre sus trozos y sobre su cabeza.

Éxodo 29:7-17 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.
