Dual Panel1"This is the ceremony for consecrating them as priests. Take a young bull and two rams, healthy and without defects.
2Using fine wheat flour but no yeast make bread and cakes mixed with oil and wafers spread with oil.
3Place them in a basket and carry them along with the bull and the two rams.
4Bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting and wash them with water.
5"Then take the vestments and dress Aaron in the tunic, the robe of the Ephod, the Ephod, and the Breastpiece, belting the Ephod on him with the embroidered waistband.
6Set the turban on his head and place the sacred crown on the turban.
7Then take the anointing oil and pour it on his head, anointing him.
8Then bring his sons, put tunics on them
9and gird them with sashes, both Aaron and his sons, and set hats on them. Their priesthood is upheld by law and is permanent. "This is how you will ordain Aaron and his sons:
10Bring the bull to the Tent of Meeting. Aaron and his sons will place their hands on the head of the bull.
11Then you will slaughter the bull in the presence of GOD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
12Take some of the bull's blood and smear it on the horns of the Altar with your finger; pour the rest of the blood on the base of the Altar.
13Next take all the fat that covers the innards, fat from around the liver and the two kidneys, and burn it on the Altar.
14But the flesh of the bull, including its hide and dung, you will burn up outside the camp. It is an Absolution-Offering.
15"Then take one of the rams. Have Aaron and his sons place their hands on the head of the ram.
16Slaughter the ram and take its blood and throw it against the Altar, all around.
17Cut the ram into pieces; wash its innards and legs, then gather the pieces and its head
18and burn the whole ram on the Altar. It is a Whole-Burnt-Offering to GOD, a pleasant fragrance, an offering by fire to GOD.
19"Then take the second ram. Have Aaron and his sons place their hands on the ram's head.
20Slaughter the ram. Take some of its blood and rub it on Aaron's right earlobe and on the right earlobes of his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Sprinkle the rest of the blood against all sides of the Altar.
21Then take some of the blood that is on the Altar, mix it with some of the anointing oil, and splash it on Aaron and his clothes and on his sons and their clothes so that Aaron and his clothes and his sons and his sons' clothes will be made holy.
22"Take the fat from the ram, the fat tail, the fat that covers the innards, the long lobe of the liver, the two kidneys and the fat on them, and the right thigh: this is the ordination ram.
23Also take one loaf of bread, an oil cake, and a wafer from the breadbasket that is in the presence of GOD.
24"Place all of these in the open hands of Aaron and his sons who will wave them before GOD, a Wave-Offering.
25Then take them from their hands and burn them on the Altar with the Whole-Burnt-Offering--a pleasing fragrance before GOD, a gift to GOD.
26"Now take the breast from Aaron's ordination ram and wave it before GOD, a Wave-Offering. That will be your portion.
27"Consecrate the Wave-Offering breast and the thigh that was held up. These are the parts of the ordination ram that are for Aaron and his sons.
28Aaron and his sons are always to get this offering from the Israelites; the Israelites are to make this offering regularly from their Peace-Offerings.
29"Aaron's sacred garments are to be handed down to his descendants so they can be anointed and ordained in them.
30The son who succeeds him as priest is to wear them for seven days and enter the Tent of Meeting to minister in the Holy Place.
31"Take the ordination ram and boil the meat in the Holy Place.
32At the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, Aaron and his sons will eat the boiled ram and the bread that is in the basket.
33Atoned by these offerings, ordained and consecrated by them, they are the only ones who are to eat them. No outsiders are to eat them; they're holy.
34Anything from the ordination ram or from the bread that is left over until morning you are to burn up. Don't eat it; it's holy.
35"Do everything for the ordination of Aaron and his sons exactly as I've commanded you throughout the seven days.
36Offer a bull as an Absolution-Offering for atonement each day. Offer it on the Altar when you make atonement for it: Anoint and consecrate it.
37Make atonement for the Altar and consecrate it for seven days; the Altar will become soaked in holiness--anyone who so much as touches the Altar will become holy.
38"This is what you are to offer on the Altar: two year-old lambs each and every day,
39one lamb in the morning and the second lamb at evening.
40With the sacrifice of the first lamb offer two quarts of fine flour with a quart of virgin olive oil, plus a quart of wine for a Drink-Offering.
41The sacrifice of the second lamb, the one at evening, is also to be accompanied by the same Grain-Offering and Drink-Offering of the morning sacrifice to give a pleasing fragrance, a gift to GOD.
42"This is to be your regular, daily Whole-Burnt-Offering before GOD, generation after generation, sacrificed at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. That's where I'll meet you; that's where I'll speak with you;
43that's where I'll meet the Israelites, at the place made holy by my Glory.
44I'll make the Tent of Meeting and the Altar holy. I'll make Aaron and his sons holy in order to serve me as priests.
45I'll move in and live with the Israelites. I'll be their God.
46They'll realize that I am their GOD who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I could live with them. I am GOD, your God.
