And he put some on the big toe of his right foot. 24Moses did the same to Aaron's sons. Then he threw blood on all the sides of the altar. Moses took the fat tail and the fat and the kidneys from inside the animal. He took the best piece of the liver from inside the animal. He took the top part of the right back leg. 26Moses took two flat loaves of bread that they had made without yeast and a biscuit. He took them from the basket that was in front of the Lord. One of the loaves had oil in it. He put them on top of the fat and the leg. 27Moses gave them to Aaron and to his sons. They lifted them up as a special gift to the Lord.

In Exodus 39:1–31; 40:12–16; and Leviticus 8, they followed these commands. Moses did not only tell them the instructions.
