The Priestly Ministry Begins
1 It came to pass on the aeighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel.
2 And he said to Aaron, “Take for yourself a young abull as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.
3 And to the children of Israel you shall speak, saying, a‘Take a kid of the goats as a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, as a burnt offering,
4 also a bull and a ram as peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord, and aa grain offering mixed with oil; for btoday the Lord will appear to you.’ ”
5 So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood1 before the Lord.
6 Then Moses said, “This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do, and the glory of the Lord will appear to you.”
7 And Moses said to Aaron, “Go to the altar, aoffer your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people. bOffer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as the Lord commanded.”
8 Aaron therefore went to the altar and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.
