Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Leviticus 9:1-7

Orders are here given for another solemnity upon the eighth day; for the newly-ordained priests were set to work immediately after the days of their consecration were finished, to let them know that they were not ordained to be idle: He that desires the office of a bishop desires a good work, which must be looked at with desire, more than the honour and benefit. The priests had not so much as one day's respite from service allowed them, that they might divert themselves, and receive the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 9:1

And it came to pass on the eighth day ,.... When the seven days of consecration were ended, as Ben Gersom, the day following them, so soon was Aaron called to the execution of his office; and so both the Targum of Jonathan and Jarchi make it to be the eighth day of the consecration, or the day after the anointing of Aaron and his sons, and which they both say was the beginning, or first day of Nisan, the day the tabernacle was erected by Moses: but that seems to have been set up before the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 9:2

And he said unto Aaron ,.... In the presence of the people of Israel: take thee a young calf for a sin offering ; one not exceeding a year old, as in Leviticus 9:3 but this was not for the sin of making the calf only, to which the Jewish writers restrain it, but for all other sins of his, which it was necessary should be expiated before he offered sacrifices for the sins of others: and a ram for a burnt offering ; being a strong and innocent creature, was a proper emblem of... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 9:3

And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak ,.... That is, Aaron should speak to them, for being now high priest, Moses had no more to do with the sacrifices of the people, but it was incumbent on Aaron to call upon them to bring them to him such as the Lord by this law required of them: saying, take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering ; this creature fitly represented Christ as made sin, and an offering for sin, in the room of his people: and a calf, and a lamb ; both of... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 9:4

Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord ,.... An offering being made for the atonement of sin, and the gift of a whole burnt offering accepted by the Lord upon that, peace offerings were to be sacrificed thereupon; one part of which belonged to the Lord, as the fat and the blood; another part to the priest, as the shoulder and the breast; and the rest to the owners to make a feast with, expressive of the peace and joy which arise from the expiation and... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 9:1

On the eighth day - This was the first day after their consecration, before which they were deemed unfit to minister in holy things, being considered as in a state of imperfection. "All creatures," says Ainsworth, "for the most part were in their uncleanness and imperfection seven days, and perfected on the eighth; as children by circumcision, Leviticus 12:2 , Leviticus 12:3 ; young beasts for sacrifice, Leviticus 22:27 ; persons that were unclean by leprosies, issues, and the like, ... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 9:2

Take thee a young calf, etc. - As these sacrifices were for Aaron himself, they are furnished by himself and not by the people, for they were designed to make atonement for his own sin. See Leviticus 4:3 . And this is supposed by the Jews to have been intended to make an atonement for his sin in the matter of the golden calf. This is very probable, as no formal atonement for that transgression had yet been made. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 9:3

Take ye a kid - In Leviticus 4:14 ; a young bullock is commanded to be offered for the sin of the people; but here the offering is a kid, which was the sacrifice appointed for the sin of the ruler, Leviticus 4:22 , Leviticus 4:23 , and hence some think that the reading of the Samaritan and the Septuagint is to be preferred. Speak unto the Elders of Israel, these being the only princes or rulers of Israel at that time; and for them it is possible this sacrifice was designed. It is... read more

John Calvin

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

Verse 1 1.And it came to pass on the eighth day We have here related how Aaron and his sons, after the time of their consecration was fulfilled, began to execute their office. It was necessary that He should be his brother’s disciple, in order to follow the pattern laid down by God. And we must bear in mind that Moses, who was not appointed priest by a solemn rite, sanctified the others, in order that the authority and the efficacy of the outward sign should rest in God alone. This, therefore,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 9:1-6

On the eighth day. The seven days of consecration being now over, Aaron for the first time offers a sin offering and burnt offering for himself, and a sin offering, a burnt offering, a peace offering, and a meat offering for the congregation. He is still instructed by Moses as to what he is to do, but it is through him that the command is given to the people to present their offerings, and it is he that slays the victims and offers their blood. His own sin offering is a young calf , or... read more
