Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Exodus 29:1-46

CHAPTER 29 The Consecration of the Priests 1. Aaron and his sons wash with water (Exodus 29:1-4 ) 2. Aaron clothed (Exodus 29:5-7 ) 3. The consecration (Exodus 29:8-25 ) 4. The food of the priests (Exodus 29:26-35 ) 5. God’s meeting place (Exodus 29:36-46 ) In Leviticus we find the record of their consecration, which is linked there with the offerings. Here it is only the instruction, while in Leviticus we find the act of the consecration. We touch upon it briefly; in Leviticus, we... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 29:1-46

CONSECRATION OF THE PRIESTS (vs.1-10) The consecration of the priests, that is, the inducting them into their priestly office, involved much detail. First, because most important, Moses was to take one young bull and two rams, all without blemish(v.1). Also unleavened bread and cakes mixed, were to be put in one basket and presented with the bull and rams. These things emphasize what is basic to priesthood, all being presented as offerings to God, though the actual sacrifice of the animals... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Exodus 29:1-46

CONSECRATION OF THE PRIESTS THE CEREMONY IN OUTLINE (Exodus 29:1-9 ) What animals were required for sacrifice, and what qualification must they have (Exodus 29:1 )? What offerings accompanied them (Exodus 29:2 )? Where was the place of ceremony (Exodus 29:4 )? What was the preliminary act? This washing of the bodies of the priests typified the cleanness of the whole man in a moral and spiritual sense, which, while it was true of Aaron only ceremonially, was true absolutely of the Lord... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Exodus 29:1-46

The Priest and His Consecration Exodus 29-30 We now study the consecration of the priest himself. Strange if God has constructed a tabernacle, given a specification for an ark, detailed the shape and colour of the priestly robes, and omitted to say anything about the priest himself. Let us see how the case stands both historically and spiritually. We have already seen that the priest did not officially appoint himself; in no sense did he rush into the priest's office; nay, more, at the very... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 29:1-37

1-37 Aaron and his sons were to be set apart for the priest's office, with ceremony and solemnity. Our Lord Jesus is the great High Priest of our profession, called of God to be so; anointed with the Spirit, whence he is called Messiah, the Christ; clothed with glory and beauty; sanctified by his own blood; made perfect, or consecrated through sufferings, Hebrews 2:10. All believers are spiritual priests, to offer spiritual sacrifices, 1 Peter 2:5, washed in the blood of Christ, and so made to... read more

Order of Consecration v. 1. And this is the thing that thou shalt do unto them to hallow them, to minister unto Me in the priest's office; this was the order of consecration which was to be in force for all times in the Jewish Church: Take one young bullock and two rams without blemish, free from sickness and any physical defects, v. 2. and unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened, tempered with oil, olive-oil being mixed in when the dough was prepared, and wafers unleavened, very thin,... read more
