Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Leviticus 9:1-24

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

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Leviticus 9:1-24

STRANGE FIRE AND CONSEQUENCES In an earlier lesson the present chapters were outlined as The Law of the Priests, though we might better have said, The Law of the Consecration of the Priests. And yet in either case the phrase must be used in an accommodated sense, since we are not here dealing with the law itself but with the initial execution of the law in the consecration of Aaron and his sons. The law itself was considered in the Book of Exodus, so we may pass over chapters 8 and 9 of the... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Leviticus 9:1-8

Consecration and Service Leviticus 8:33 ; Lev 9:1-8 IT seems singular and almost frivolous that the priests were commanded not to go out of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation for seven days. This is our own practice. The accident has changed, but this is the philosophy of all calculated and well-set life. We think we have escaped all these mechanisms, whereas we have not escaped one of them. God is one, his method is one, his providence is one. Any variety which may please our... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 9:1

CONTENTS Aaron and his sons having in the preceding chapter been solemnly ordained and set apart to the ministry, are in this chapter introduced as entering upon their holy office. Moses, at GOD'S command, appoints an assembly both of the priests and elders, and enjoins them to bring their offerings before the LORD. This is done. Aaron first offers his sacrifice for himself, and then for the people. The glory of the LORD appears in the tabernacle. The divine approbation is manifested by... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 9:1-21

1-21 These many sacrifices, which were all done away by the death of Christ, teach us that our best services need washing in his blood, and that the guilt of our best sacrifices needs to be done away by one more pure and more noble than they. Let us be thankful that we have such a High Priest. The priests had not a day's respite from service allowed. God's spiritual priests have constant work, which the duty of every day requires; they that would give up their account with joy, must redeem... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Leviticus 9:1-7

The Preparations for the Sacrifices v. 1. And it came to pass on the eighth day, after the seven days of consecration, that Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel, for it was necessary that the priesthood be in active exercise of its duties at once. v. 2. And he said unto Aaron, take thee a young calf, a bull calf, or very young bullock, for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord. These first offerings of Aaron were... read more
