Context of Exodus 29:23

21And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be hallowed, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons’ garments with him. 22Also thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and the right shoulder; for it is a ram of consecration: And one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened bread that is before Yhwh: 24And thou shalt put all in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his sons; and shalt wave them for a wave offering before Yhwh. 25And thou shalt receive them of their hands, and burn them upon the altar for a burnt offering, for a sweet savour before Yhwh: it is an offering made by fire unto Yhwh.

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 23And one loaf of bread - The bread of different kinds, (see Clarke on Exodus 29:2; (note)), in this offering, seems to have been intended as a minchah, or offering of grateful acknowledgment for providential blessings.

• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1-351. hallow them, to minister unto me in the priest's office--The act of inaugurating the priests was accompanied by ceremonial solemnities well calculated not only to lead the people to entertain exalted views of the office, but to impress those functionaries themselves with a profound sense of its magnitude and importance. In short, they were taught to know that the service was for them as well as for the people; and every time they engaged in a new…Read the comment
