Context of Exodus 29:36

34But if any of the meat from the offerings remains until the morning, you must burn it. Also burn any bread that remains. You must not eat it, because it is holy. 35Do everything that I have commanded you, to make Aaron and his sons my special servants. Take seven days to do this. Kill a bull each day, as a sacrifice that makes people clean from their sins. Also make the altar clean and pure. Pour oil over it to make it holy for me. 37Do this to the altar for seven days to make it pure. Then it will be completely holy. Anything that touches the altar will become holy too. 38You must offer a regular gift on the altar each day. This offering must be two lambs that are one year old.

Commentaries on Exodus 29:36

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 36Thou 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.Read the comment

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 1-37Moses had to consecrate (or sanctify) Aaron and his sons to serve the Lord.

But he set them apart to serve a God whose nature is very different from that of sinful humans. Leviticus 8 gives the account of how they followed these instructions.Read the comment
