Exodus 40:9-16

9Take the anointing oil, and anoint the tent and everything in it. In this way you will dedicate it and all its furnishings. Then it will be holy.

10Anoint the altar for burnt offerings and all the utensils. In this way you will dedicate the altar, and it will be most holy.

11Anoint the basin and stand, and they will be dedicated.

12“Bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting, and wash them.

13Then dress Aaron in the holy clothes, and anoint him. In this way you will dedicate him to serve me as priest.

14Have his sons come forward, and dress them in their linen robes.

15Anoint them to serve me as priests, as you anointed their father. Their anointing will begin a permanent priesthood for them for generations to come.”

16Moses did everything as the Lord commanded him.
