Context of Exodus 29:32

30For seven days the one of his sons who is priest in his place shall put them on when he enters the tent of meeting to minister in the Holy Place. 31“Now you shall take the ram of ordination and boil its flesh in a holy place. Then Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket, at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 33So they shall eat those things by which atonement was made at their ordination and consecration; but a layman shall not eat them, because they are holy. 34And if any of the flesh of ordination or any of the bread remains until morning, then you shall burn the remainder with fire; it shall not be eaten, because it is holy.
