Commentaries on Leviticus 9:2
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 2Take thee a young calf, etc. - As these sacrifices were for Aaron himself, they are furnished by himself and not by the people, for they were designed to make atonement for his own sin.

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1-241-7. Moses called ...
