Appointing the Priests

29 “This is what you must do to ·appoint Aaron and his sons [^Lthem to consecrate them] to serve me as priests. Take one young bull and two ·male sheep [rams] ·that have nothing wrong with them [^Lwithout blemish]. ² Use ·fine [choice] wheat flour ·without yeast to make bread [to make unleavened bread], cakes ·without yeast [unleavened] mixed with olive oil, and wafers ·without yeast [unleavened] brushed with olive oil. ³ Put these in one basket, and bring them along with the bull and two ·male sheep [rams]. ⁴ Bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Meeting Tent and wash them with water. ⁵ Take the clothes and dress Aaron in the inner robe [28:39–41] and the outer robe [28:31–35] of the ·holy vest [ephod; 28:6–14]. Then put on him the ·holy vest [ephod] and the ·chest covering [breastpiece; 28:15–28], and tie the ·holy vest [ephod] on him with its ·skillfully woven belt [embroidered waistband of the ephod]. ⁶ Put the turban on his head, and put the holy ·crown [diadem] on the turban. ⁷ Take the special olive oil and pour it on his head to ·make him a priest [^Lanoint him].
