Êxodo 29:38-46

Os Dois Holocaustos Diários

38 “Eis o que você terá que sacrificar regularmente sobre o altar: a cada dia dois cordeiros de um ano.

39 Ofereça um de manhã e o outro ao entardecer.

40 Com o primeiro cordeiro ofereça um jarro^[a] da melhor farinha misturada com um litro^[b] de azeite de olivas batidas, e um litro de vinho como oferta derramada.

41 Ofereça o outro cordeiro ao entardecer com uma oferta de cereal e uma oferta derramada, como de manhã. É oferta de aroma agradável ao SENHOR preparada no fogo.

42 “De geração em geração esse holocausto deverá ser feito regularmente à entrada da Tenda do Encontro, diante do SENHOR. Nesse local eu os encontrarei e falarei com você;

43 ali me encontrarei com os israelitas, e o lugar será consagrado pela minha glória.

44 “Assim consagrarei a Tenda do Encontro e o altar, e consagrarei também Arão e seus filhos para me servirem como sacerdotes.

45 E habitarei no meio dos israelitas e serei o seu Deus.

46 Saberão que eu sou o SENHOR, o seu Deus, que os tirou do Egito para habitar no meio deles. Eu sou o SENHOR, o seu Deus.

Êxodo 29:38-46 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.
