Exodus 29:1-13 ▼

1 “ And this is the thing that you shall do to them to sanctify them to minister as priests to Me: Take one bull, a son of the herd, and two rams, unblemished,

2 and unleavened bread, and unleavened cakes mixed with the oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with the oil; you shall make them of fine flour of wheat.

3 And you shall put them in one basket and bring them near in the basket and with the bull and the two rams.

4 And you shall bring near Aaron and his sons to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and you shall wash them with the water.

5 And you shall take the garments, and you shall clothe Aaron—the tunic, and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate—and you shall gird him with the skillfully woven waistband of the ephod.

6 And you shall put the turban on his head, and put the holy diadem on the turban.

7 And you shall take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him.

8 And you shall bring his sons near, and put on them tunics.

9 And you shall gird them with sashes—Aaron and his sons—and tie on them the headbands; and the priesthood shall be theirs for an everlasting statute. And you shall fill the hand of Aaron and the hand of his sons.

10 And you shall bring near the bull before the face of the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the bull.

11 And you shall slaughter the bull before the face of YHWH, by the door of the Tent of Meeting.

12 And you shall take from the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger, and you shall pour out all the blood at the base of the altar.

13 And you shall take all the fat that is covering the entrails, and the lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, and you shall burn them on the altar.
