Then he is to change his clothes, dressing himself with a different set of clothes, and take the ashes to a clean place outside the camp.

The fire on the altar is to be kept burning continuously without being extinguished. The priest is to burn wood on it every morning, arrange burnt offerings over it, and then burn the fat contained in the peace offerings over it.

The fire is to continue to burn on the altar and is never to be extinguished."

"This is the law concerning grain offerings: Aaron's sons are to offer them in the LORD's presence, in front of the altar.

He is to take a handful of fine flour for a grain offering, some olive oil, and all of the frankincense for the grain offering, and make a sacrifice of smoke on the altar as a memorial portion, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

Aaron and his sons are to eat what remains of the unleavened offering at this sacred place the court of the Tent of Meeting.

It is not to be baked with leaven. I've given it as their portion out of my offerings made by fire. It's a most holy thing, like the sin and guilt offerings.

Every male of Aaron's sons is to eat it as a portion continually allotted for your generations from the offerings made by fire to the Lord. Anyone who touches them is to be holy."

"This is the offering that Aaron and his sons are to offer to the LORD the day he is anointed: a tenth of an ephah of flour is to be offered throughout the day, half in the morning and half in the evening.

It is to be prepared with olive oil on a griddle. Once it has been mixed thoroughly, bake it, bring it in pieces, and offer it like a grain offering of broken pieces, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

The anointed priest who succeeds him from among his sons is to offer it. As a permanent statute, it is to be offered whole and made to smoke in the LORD's presence.

Every grain offering from a priest is to be burned whole. It is not to be eaten."

The priest who offers it as a sin offering is to eat it at a sacred place in the court of the Tent of Meeting.

The earthen vessel in which it was boiled is to be broken, unless it was boiled in a bronze vessel, in which case it is to be polished very well and rinsed in water.

Every male among the priests is to eat it. It's a most sacred thing.

Any sin offering from which its blood was brought to the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the sacred place is not to be eaten. Instead, it is to be incinerated."

The guilt offering is to be offered in the same place where the burnt offering is slaughtered. The priest is to sprinkle some of its blood on the altar and around it.

As to all its fat that is, the fat on the tail and the fat covering the internal organs the one presenting the sacrifice is to offer it.

But the two kidneys, the fat over them by the loins, and the appendage on the liver are to be taken away, along with the kidneys.

Then the priest is to offer them on the altar, incinerating them with fire as a guilt offering to the LORD.

The law for the sin offering is the same as the guilt offering. It belongs to the priest who made atonement with it.

The hide from the burnt offering brought by the offeror is to belong to the priest.

Every grain offering that's baked in the oven and everything that's prepared in a stew pan or in the frying pan belongs to the priest who offered it.

"This is the law concerning the sacrifice for peace offerings that are to be brought to the LORD:

If someone brings it to demonstrate thanksgiving, then he is to present along with the thanksgiving offering unleavened cakes mixed with olive oil, unleavened wafers spread with olive oil, and cakes of mixed fine flour with olive oil.

Along with the cakes of unleavened bread, he is to bring his thanksgiving offering with his peace offerings.

He is to present one from each grain offering, a separate offering to the LORD. It will belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offering.

As to the meat contained in his peace offerings, it is to be eaten on the day it is offered. Nothing of it is to remain until morning."

"If his sacrifice accompanies a fulfilled vow or is a voluntary offering, it is to be eaten on the day the offeror brings the sacrifice. Anything left over is to be eaten the next day,

but whatever remains uneaten from the meat of the sacrifice by the third day is to be incinerated.

If any of the meat of his sacrifice of peace offerings is eaten on the third day, it won't be accepted for the one who brought it. It is to be considered as refuse, and whoever eats it will bear the punishment of his iniquity."

"Meat that comes in contact with a ceremonially unclean thing is not to be eaten. Incinerate it instead. As for ceremonially clean meat, anyone who is clean may eat it.

But the person who eats meat from the sacrifice that belongs to the LORD, while still affected by his uncleanness, is to be eliminated from contact with his people.

Any person who touches a ceremonially unclean thing whether the uncleanness pertains to human beings, animals, or to creeping things and then eats from the meat of peace offerings that belongs to the LORD is to be eliminated from contact with his people."

"Tell the Israelis, "You are not to eat the fat of an ox, a lamb, or a goat.

Anyone who eats the fat of an animal that has been offered by fire to the LORD is to be eliminated from contact with his people.

You are not to eat any form of blood in any of your dwellings, whether it's from birds or animals.

Any person who eats any form of blood is to be eliminated from contact with his people.'"

"Tell the Israelis that whoever brings a peace offering sacrifice to the LORD is to bring his offering to the LORD from the sacrifice of his peace offerings.

He is to bring the offering made by fire with his own hands to the LORD. He is to bring the fat with the breast, since the breast is to be waved as a raised offering to the LORD.

The priest will burn the fat on the altar, but the breast belongs to Aaron and his sons.

From the sacrifices of your peace offerings give the right thigh to the priest as a raised offering to the LORD.

The descendant of Aaron's sons who brings the blood and the fat from the peace offering is to keep the right thigh for his own portion,

since I've taken the breast and the thigh as raised offerings from the sacrifices of peace offerings of the Israelis and have given them to Aaron the priest and his sons as their perpetual portion from the Israelis."

This is the consecrated portion for Aaron and his descendants from the offerings made by fire to the LORD, the day they were presented to be priests to the LORD.

This is what the LORD had commanded to give them the day he anointed them from among the Israelis a perpetual portion for their generations.

This is what the LORD had commanded Moses on Mount Sinai on the day he commanded the Israelis to bring their offerings to the LORD in the Sinai wilderness.

"Take Aaron, his sons with him, the clothing, the anointing oil, the bull for sin offering, two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread

and then assemble the entire congregation at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting."

So Moses did just as the LORD had commanded him. He assembled the congregation at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

Moses told the congregation, "This is what the LORD commanded to be done."

He sprinkled some on the altar seven times, and then anointed the altar, all its vessels, the basin, and its base to consecrate them.

After doing this, he poured the oil of anointing on Aaron's head to anoint and consecrate him.

So Moses slaughtered it, took the blood, and applied some of it at the horns of the altar and around it with his fingers, thus purifying the altar. Then he poured the blood at the base of the altar, thereby sanctifying it as a means to make atonement with it.

Moses burned on the altar all the fat on the internal organs, the appendage on the liver, the two kidneys, and the fat.

As to the bull and its fat, skin, and offal, he incinerated them outside the camp, just as the LORD had commanded him.

As to the ram, he cut it into parts at the joints, burned the head, the internal organs, and the fat,

washed the internal organs and the thigh with water, and then burned the entire ram on the altar as a whole burnt offering, a pleasing aroma of an offering made by fire to the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.

Moses then slaughtered it, took some of its blood, and put it on Aaron's right earlobe, right thumb, and right great toe.

Then he took the fat from the tail, all the fat on the internal organs, the appendage of the liver, the two kidneys with the fat, and the right thigh.

He put all of these things in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and they all waved them in a raised offering to the LORD.

After this, Moses took those things from their hands and burned them on the altar over the whole burnt offering for consecration. They served as a pleasing aroma, an offering made by fire to the LORD.

Moses took the breast and waved it as a raised offering in the LORD's presence as the portion that belonged to Moses from the ram of consecration, just as the LORD had commanded him.

Then he told Aaron and his sons, "Boil the meat at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. You may eat it there, along with the bread that is in the basket for consecration, just as I've commanded when I told him, "Aaron and his sons may eat of it,

but the leftover meat and bread is to be incinerated.'

Furthermore, you are not to go out past the entrance to the Tent of Meeting until the days of your ordination have been completed, since it will take seven days to ordain you.

What has been done today has been commanded by the LORD to make atonement for you.

Stay seven days and nights at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and attend to the service of the LORD, so that you won't die, because this is what I've commanded."

an ox, a ram for a peace offering to sacrifice in the LORD's presence, and a grain offering with olive oil, because on that day the LORD will appear to you."

So they brought what Moses had commanded to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. The entire congregation drew near and stood in the LORD's presence.

Then Moses said, "This is what the LORD commanded you to do so that the glory of the LORD may be revealed to you."

So Aaron drew near to the altar and slaughtered the calf for a sin offering on behalf of himself.

Next, Aaron's sons brought the blood to him and he dipped his fingers in the blood and placed it on the horns of the altar. As to the rest of the blood, he poured it at the base of the altar.

As for the burnt offering, they delivered it to Aaron piece by piece, and he burned the head on the altar,

Then he brought the whole burnt offering and offered it according to procedure.

Next, he brought the grain offering, filled his hand with it, and burned it on the altar next to the burnt offering for that morning.

He slaughtered the ox and ram for the peace offering sacrifice on behalf of the people. Aaron's sons delivered the blood to him, which he poured on the altar and around it.

As to the fat from the ox and the ram the tail, the fat covering the kidneys, and the appendage of the liver

Moses and Aaron entered the Tent of Meeting. When they came out, they blessed the people and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people.

So they approached to carry them in their tunics outside the camp, just as Moses had commanded.

Then Moses told Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, "You are not to loosen the hair of your head and you are not to rend your clothes. That way, you won't die and wrath won't come on the entire congregation. Your brothers and the assembly of Israel will mourn because of the fire that the LORD kindled.

Also, you are not to leave the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. Otherwise, you'll die, since the LORD's anointing oil remains on you." So they followed Moses' instructions.

"You and your sons with you are not to drink wine that is, any intoxicating drink when you enter the Tent of Meeting. That way, you won't die. This is to be a perpetual statute throughout your generations.

You are to differentiate between what's sacred and common and between what's unclean and clean.

You are to teach the Israelis all the statutes that the LORD commanded you by the authority of Moses."

Then Moses told Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, "Take the leftovers from the grain offering and the offerings made by fire and eat the unleavened bread beside the altar, because it is most holy to the LORD.

Eat at a sacred place, because it's your and your sons' prescribed portions. It's from the offering made by fire to the LORD, since I've commanded it.

As to the breast and thigh raised offerings, you and your sons and daughters with you may eat them at a clean place, because they belong to you and are your sons' prescribed portions and were taken from the sacrifices of peace offering presented by the Israelis.

They are to bring the thigh offering, the breast raised offering, and the offerings made by fire from the fat to wave as a raised offering in the LORD's presence. It will be a perpetual portion for you and your sons with you, just as the LORD commanded."

"Why didn't you eat the sin offering at the sacred place? It's most holy and he has given it to you so that you may bear the punishment for the iniquity of the entire congregation and make atonement for them in the LORD's presence.

Look! Its blood wasn't brought inside the sanctuary. You were to have eaten it in the sanctuary, just as I commanded."

But Aaron replied to Moses, "Today they've offered their sin and whole burnt offerings in the LORD's presence. Yet things such as these have happened to me. Had I eaten the sin offering today, would that have pleased the LORD?"

except you are not to eat the following animals that have divided hooves or ruminate their cud: the camel (because it chews the cud but doesn't have divided hooves, it is to be unclean for you),

the rock badger (because it chews its cud but its hooves aren't divided, it is to be unclean for you),

the hare (because it chews its cud, but its hooves aren't divided, it is to be unclean for you),

and the pig (because it has divided hooves and is therefore cloven-footed, but it doesn't ruminate its cud, it is to be unclean for you).

You are not to eat their flesh or even touch their carcasses. They are to be unclean for you."

But anything that doesn't have fins or scales whether from the seas or the rivers any of the swarming creatures and living creatures in the waters are detestable for you.

They are to remain detestable for you. You are not to eat of their meat and you are to detest their carcasses.

Anything that doesn't have fins or scales in the waters is a detestable thing for you."
