Exodus 29:35 - Exposition
Seven days shalt thou consecrate them . The repetition of the ceremony seven times on seven separate days seems to be intended. Thus was an ideal completeness given to it. Compare the seven days' compassing around of Jericho ( Joshua 6:3 , Joshua 6:4 ,), the seven washings in Jordan by Naaman ( 2 Kings 5:14 ), the seven ascents to the top of Carmel by the servant of Elijah ( 1 Kings 18:43 , 1 Kings 18:44 ), etc.
