Outline:

As we noted last Sunday Leviticus 8 marked a transition from seven chapters of legalese to an active narrative that will last eight days and carry us through the end of Leviticus 10. For a complete commentary on the formation of the Aaronic Order of Priests and why this matters I’d refer you to listen or watch last Sunday’s study on C316.tv.

Regarding our purposes this morning, chapter 8 closes with Moses telling “Aaron and his sons” to “stay at the door of the tabernacle of meeting day and night for seven days, and keep the charge of the Lord, so that you may not die.’ So Aaron and his sons did all the things that the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses.” (Leviticus 8:35-36)

Leviticus 9:1-6, “It came to pass on the eighth day that Moses called Aaron and his sons (they come forth out of the tabernacle) and the elders of Israel (the representatives of the people). And he said to Aaron, ‘Take for yourself a young bull as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the Lord.

And to the children of Israel you shall speak, saying, ‘Take a kid of the goats as a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, as a burnt offering, also a bull and a ram as peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord, and a grain offering mixed with oil; for today the Lord will appear to you.’

So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord. Then Moses said, ‘This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do, and the glory of the Lord will appear to you.’”

Following these “seven days of consecration” where “Aaron and his sons” had to remain inside the tabernacle of meeting by the door, “it came to pass on the eighth day” that Moses calls them out and gives them new instructions. As the High Priest Aaron’s first task was to offer both a “sin offering” and a “burnt offering” for himself before then commanding “the children of Israel” to bring to the tabernacle their “sin, burnt, peace, and grain offerings.” Not only does this mark “Aaron and his sons” first day on the job, but these specific directives indicate the tabernacle of meeting was now officially open for business!
