24 and you shall put all these in the hands of Aaron and in the hands of his sons, and you shall awave them as a wave offering before the Lord.
25 aYou shall receive them back from their hands and burn them on the altar as a burnt offering, as a sweet aroma before the Lord. It is an offering made by fire to the Lord.
26 “Then you shall take athe breast of the ram of Aaron’s consecration and wave it as a wave offering before the Lord; and it shall be your portion.
27 And from the ram of the consecration you shall consecrate athe breast of the wave offering which is waved, and the thigh of the heave offering which is raised, of that which is for Aaron and of that which is for his sons.
28 It shall be from the children of Israel for Aaron and his sons aby a statute forever. For it is a heave offering; bit shall be a heave offering from the children of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, that is, their heave offering to the Lord.

What Does Exodus 29:10 Mean?
Exodus 29:10
The Aaronic priests were purified for service to God through the transferal of their sins to a bull. Similarly, when an Israelite presented a peace or a sin offering, he laid his hands upon the animal being offered, identifying himself with it and transferring his guilt to the animal. Thus, the animal was set apart by God through the laying on of hands.
