32. Then Aaron and his sons will eat this meat, along with the bread in the basket, at the Tabernacle entrance.
33. They alone may eat the meat and bread used for their purification in the ordination ceremony. No one else may eat them, for these things are set apart and holy.
34. If any of the ordination meat or bread remains until the morning, it must be burned. It may not be eaten, for it is holy.
35. “This is how you will ordain Aaron and his sons to their offices, just as I have commanded you. The ordination ceremony will go on for seven days.
36. Each day you must sacrifice a young bull as a sin offering to purify them, making them right with the lord. Afterward, cleanse the altar by purifying it; make it holy by anointing it with oil.
37. Purify the altar, and consecrate it every day for seven days. After that, the altar will be absolutely holy, and whatever touches it will become holy.
38. “These are the sacrifices you are to offer regularly on the altar. Each day, offer two lambs that are a year old,
39. one in the morning and the other in the evening.
40. With one of them, offer two quarts of choice flour mixed with one quart of pure oil of pressed olives; also, offer one quart of wine as a liquid offering.
41. Offer the other lamb in the evening, along with the same offerings of flour and wine as in the morning. It will be a pleasing aroma, a special gift presented to the lord.
42. “These burnt offerings are to be made each day from generation to generation. Offer them in the lord’s presence at the Tabernacle entrance; there I will meet with you and speak with you.
43. I will meet the people of Israel there, in the place made holy by my glorious presence.
44. Yes, I will consecrate the Tabernacle and the altar, and I will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests.
45. Then I will live among the people of Israel and be their God,
46. and they will know that I am the lord their God. I am the one who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I could live among them. I am the lord their God.
