⥃Aaron’s First Offerings
[1] And it came to pass on the eighth day2, [that] Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel; [2] And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young3 calf for a sin offering, and a ram4 for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer [them] before the Lord. [3] And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye5 a kid6 of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf7 and a lamb, [both8] of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering; [4] Also a bullock9 and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord; and a meat10 offering mingled with oil: for to day11 the Lord will appear unto you.
[5] [¶]And they brought [that] which Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation: and all the congregation12 drew near and stood before the Lord. [6] And Moses said, This [is] the thing which the Lord commanded that ye should do: and the glory13 of the Lord shall appear unto you. [7] And Moses said unto Aaron, Go unto the altar, and offer thy14 sin offering, and thy burnt offering, and make an atonement for thyself, and for the people: and offer the15 offering of the people, and make an atonement for them; as the Lord commanded.
[8] Aaron therefore went unto the altar, and slew the calf of the sin offering, which [was] for himself.16 [9] And the sons of Aaron brought the blood unto him: and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put [it] upon the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the bottom of the altar:17 [10] But the fat18, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the Lord19 commanded Moses. [11] And the flesh and the hide he burnt with fire without the camp.20 [12] And he slew the burnt offering; and Aaron’s sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled round about upon the altar.21 [13] And they presented the burnt offering unto him, with the pieces thereof, and the head: and he burnt [them] upon the altar. [14] And he did wash the inwards and the legs, and burnt [them] upon the burnt offering on the altar.22
[15] [¶]And he brought the people’s offering, and took the goat, which [was] the sin offering for the people, and slew it, and offered it for sin, as the first.23 [16] And he brought the burnt offering, and offered it according to the manner24. [17] And he brought the meat25 offering, and took an handful thereof26, and burnt [it] upon the altar, beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning. [18] He slew also the bullock and the ram [for] a sacrifice27 of peace offerings, which [was] for the people: and Aaron’s sons presented unto him the blood, which he sprinkled upon the altar round about, [19] And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that which covereth [the inwards], and the kidneys, and the caul [above] the liver:28 [20] And they put29 the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt30 the fat upon the altar: [21] And the breasts31 and the right shoulder Aaron waved [for] a wave offering before the Lord; as Moses commanded32. [22] And Aaron lifted up his hand33 toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings. [23] And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out34, and blessed the people: and the glory35 of the Lord appeared unto all the people. [24] And there came a fire36 out from before the Lord, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: [which] when all the people saw, they shouted37, and fell on their faces.

Not on the eighth day of the month, but on the first day after their consecration, which occupied seven days, and before which they were deemed unfit to minister in holy things, being considered in a state of imperfection. All creatures, for the most part, were considered as in a state of uncleanness and imperfection, seven days, and perfected on the eighth.

As the offering here is a kid, which was the sacrifice of the sin of the ruler, some think that the reading of the Samaritan and the LXX is to be preferred: "Speak unto the Elders of Israel." ↩

The Samaritan text, and thirty manuscripts have, kaasher tzivvah yehowah eth Moshe, "as Jehovah commanded Moses;" which is also the reading of the LXX, Arabic, and Targum of Onkelos, and seems to be the true reading, being supported, not only by these authorities, but by the whole chapter itself. ↩

or, as the Greek has it, "his hands", Menachem gives reason why it is written hand, to signify the right hand, because that was lifted up higher than the left. The lifting up of the hand was a gesture used in speaking, and signifying any weighty thing, Isa 49:22; and particularly in swearing, Gen 14:22; praying, Ps 28:2; and blessing, either of God, Ps 134:2, or of men, as in this place. Paul, speaking of prayer, uses the phrase, "lifting up holy hands;" as also David: "Let the lifting up of my hands be as the evening sacrifice."

These victims were consumed by a fire of no human kindling. Josephus says that "a fire proceeded from the victims themselves, of its own accord, which had the appearance of a flash of lightning, and consumed all that was upon the altar."
