Leviticus 8:30 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 8:30

And Moses took of the anointing oil, and of the blood
which was upon the altar
Which was sprinkled upon the altar round about, ( Leviticus 8:24 ) and these two seem to be mixed together, since it follows:

Leviticus 8:30 In-Context

28 He took them again from their hands, and burnt them upon the altar of holocaust: because it was the oblation of consecration, for a sweet odour of sacrifice to the Lord.
29 And he took of the ram of consecration, the breast for his portion, elevating it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded him.
30 And taking the ointment, and the blood that was upon the altar, he sprinkled Aaron, and his vestments, and his sons, and their vestments with it.
31 And when he had sanctified them in their vestments, he commanded them, saying: Boil the flesh before the door of the tabernacle, and there eat it. Eat ye also the loaves of consecration, that are laid in the basket, as the Lord commanded me, saying: Aaron and his sons shall eat them.
32 And whatsoever shall be left of the flesh and the loaves, shall be consumed with fire.
