Context of Exodus 29:32

30The son who succeeds him as priest—the one who goes into the tent of meeting to serve in the holy place—will wear them for seven days. 31“Take the ram used for the ordination, and boil its meat in a holy place. At the entrance to the tent of meeting, Aaron and his sons will eat the meat of the ram and the bread ⌞left⌟ in the basket. 33They will eat those offerings through which they made peace with the Lord at their ordination and installation. No one else may eat them because the offerings are holy. 34If any meat or bread from the ordination is left over until morning, burn it up. It must not be eaten because it is holy.
