Context of Leviticus 9:5
3Then say to the Israelites, ‘Take a male goat as a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both one year old, without blemish, as a burnt offering, 4and a bull and a ram as peace offerings to sacrifice before the Lord, and a grain offering mixed with [olive] oil, for today the Lord will appear to you.’ ” So they took what Moses had commanded to the front of the Tent of Meeting, and all the congregation approached and stood before the Lord. 6Moses said, “This is the thing which the Lord has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the Lord may appear to you.” 7Moses said to Aaron, “Approach the altar and present your sin offering and your burnt offering and make atonement for yourself and for the people; and present the offering of the people and make atonement for them, just as the Lord has commanded.”
