Thematic Bible




"The holy garments of Aaron are to be for his sons after him so that they may be anointed in them and ordained in them.

You are to clothe Aaron with the holy garments, you are to anoint him, and consecrate him so he may serve me as priest.

"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.

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

The priest who has been anointed and consecrated to be priest after his father is to make the atonement. He is to put on the sacred linen clothing

The community is to release the inadvertent killer from the blood avenger and return him to the town of refuge where he had fled. He is to live there until the High Priest dies, who will have anointed him with holy oil.

It is like precious oil on the head, descending to the beard even to Aaron's beard and flowing down to the edge of his robes.
