The Ritual of Consecration Begins

Exodus 29:1-9

"Here is what you are to do to consecrate them for ministry to me in the office of cohen. Take one young bull and two rams without defect,

also matzah, matzah cakes mixed with olive oil, and matzah wafers spread with oil - all made from fine wheat flour;

put them together in a basket, and present them in the basket, along with the bull and the two rams.

"Bring Aharon and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting, and wash them with water.

Take the garments, and put on Aharon the tunic, the robe for the ritual vest, the vest itself, and the breastplate. Fasten the vest on him with its belt.

Put the turban on his head and attach the holy ornament to the turban.

Then take the anointing oil, and anoint him by pouring it on his head.

Bring his sons; put tunics on them;

wrap sashes around them, Aharon and his sons; and put the headgear on their heads. The office of cohen is to be theirs by a permanent regulation. Thus you will consecrate Aharon and his sons.
