Context of Leviticus 9:16

14He washed the entrails and the legs and burned them atop the burnt offering on the altar. 15Aaron then presented the people’s offering. He took the male goat for the people’s sin offering, slaughtered it, and offered it for sin like the first one. He presented the burnt offering and offered it according to the ordinance. 17Next he presented the grain offering, took a handful of it, and burned it on the altar in addition to the morning’s burnt offering. 18Then he slaughtered the ox and the ram as the people’s peace offering. His sons brought him the blood, and he splattered it on all sides of the altar.
