Thematic Bible



Any priest who is one of his sons and who succeeds him and enters the tent of meeting to minister in the sanctuary must wear them for seven days.

“This is what you are to do for Aaron and his sons based on all I have commanded you. Take seven days to ordain them.

You will offer a goat for a sin offering each day for seven days. A young bull and a ram from the flock, both unblemished, must also be offered. For seven days the priests are to make atonement for the altar and cleanse it. In this way they will consecrate it
