Exodus 29:36
Thou shalt cleanse the altar - The altar was to be sanctified for seven days; and it is likely that on each day, previously to the consecration service, the altar was wiped clean, and the former day' s ashes, etc., removed.
34 And if any of the flesh of the consecration offerings, or of the bread, remains until the morning, then ayou shall burn the remainder with fire. It shall not be eaten, because it is holy.
35 “Thus you shall do to Aaron and his sons, according to all that I have commanded you. aSeven days you shall consecrate them.
36 And you ashall offer a bull every day as a sin offering for atonement. bYou shall cleanse the altar when you make atonement for it, and you shall anoint it to sanctify it.
37 Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar and sanctify it. And the altar shall be most holy. aWhatever touches the altar must be holy.
The Daily Offerings
38 “Now this is what you shall offer on the altar: atwo lambs of the first year, bday by day continually.
39 One lamb you shall offer ain the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer1 at twilight.
40 With the one lamb shall be one-tenth of an ephah of flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin of pressed oil, and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering.
41 And the other lamb you shall aoffer at twilight; and you shall offer with it the grain offering and the drink offering, as in the morning, for a sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.
42 This shall be aa continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the Lord, bwhere I will meet you to speak with you.
43 And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle ashall be sanctified by My glory.
44 So I will consecrate the tabernacle of meeting and the altar. I will also aconsecrate both Aaron and his sons to minister to Me as priests.
