利未記 9:2 RCUVTS

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 9:2

Leviticus 9:2. For a sin-offering For himself and his own sins, which was an evidence of the imperfection of that priesthood, and of the necessity of a better. The Jewish writers suggest, that a calf was appointed to remind him of his sin in making the golden calf. Thereby he had rendered himself for ever unworthy of the honour of the priesthood; on which he had reason to reflect with sorrow and shame, in all the atonements he made. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 9:1-24

The priests begin their duties (9:1-24)Immediately after the seven-day ordination period, Aaron and his sons began their duties. Before acting as the representatives of others, they offered a sin offering for their own cleansing and a burnt offering for their own dedication (9:1-14). After this they offered four sacrifices on behalf of Israel: a sin offering, to indicate that the people were cleansed from sin; a burnt offering, to indicate that they were dedicated to God; a cereal offering, to... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Leviticus 9:1-6

Moses’ commands to Aaron and the congregation and their obedience 9:1-6Ironically the first sacrifice Aaron had to offer was a calf, as if to atone for making the golden calf (cf. Exodus 32). The sinfulness of man is clear in that Aaron had to offer many different offerings to cover his sins and the sins of the people. Aaron had to bring offerings in addition to all those that Moses had offered the previous seven days. This indicated again that the Levitical offerings did not provide a... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 9:1-24

Installation of Aaron and his SonsThe ceremonial of consecration is repeated daily for seven days (Leviticus 8:33 see Exodus 29:35). On the eighth day Aaron and his sons formally assume office. Aaron first sacrifices for himself (Leviticus 9:7-14) and then for the people (Leviticus 9:15-21). The solemn blessing of the people follows (Leviticus 9:22-23), after which fire from the Lord descends and consumes the sacrifices upon the altar (Leviticus 9:24).7. Aaron did not approach the altar till... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Leviticus 9:2

(2) A young calf for a sin offering.—Literally, a calf, the son of a bull, which, according to the canonical law, was a calf of the second year, whilst a steer, the son of a bull, rendered in the Authorised Version by “young bullock,” was defined to be three years old, or in its third year. (See Leviticus 4:3.) Before they could mediate for the forgiveness of the people, Aaron and his sons had first to bring a sin offering for themselves, in expiation probably for the feeling of pride which... read more

THE INAUGURATION OF THE TABERNACLE SERVICELeviticus 9:1-24AARON and his sons having now been solemnly consecrated to the priestly office by the ceremonies of seven days, their formal assumption of their daily duties in the tabernacle was marked by a special service suited to the august occasion, signalised at its close by the appearance of the glory of Jehovah to assembled Israel, in token of His sanction and approval of all that had been done. It would appear that the daily burnt offering and... read more

2. The Functions of the Priesthood Exercised CHAPTER 9 1. The new offerings of the priests (Leviticus 9:1-14 ) 2. The people’s offerings (Leviticus 9:15-21 ) 3. The fulness of blessing and glory (Leviticus 9:22-24 ) A service follows the consecration of the priests, in which they officiated; hitherto Moses had acted by divine command. The service ordered is of great significance. For seven days, during the days of their consecration, a bullock had been offered for Aaron and his sons,... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 9:1-24

THE BEGINNING OF PRIESTLY MINISTRY (vv. 1-24) Having completed all the instructions concerning the offerings and their laws, and now also having completed the consecration of the priests, Moses indicates the beginning of the priestly service in connection with the people. This was on “the eighth day,” for it was a new beginning for the people as regards their relationship to God. Moses addressed both Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel. Aaron was to offer a young calf and a ram for a... read more
