- Exodus 29:10–37
Read Exodus 29:19 with 29:10–37. In 29:19, “And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram” locates the verse inside “Ordination Uses Blood, Fire, Food, and Seven Days” and clarifies what changes before the next line. The whole unit shows: Sin offering, burnt offering, ram of ordination, blood on body and altar, wave portions, sacred meal, garments, succession, and seven-day purification consecrate priests and altar.
Why It Needs Context
In 29:19, “And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram” locates the verse inside “Ordination Uses Blood, Fire, Food, and Seven Days” and clarifies what changes before the next line. Its force depends on 29:10–37; detached from “Ordination Uses Blood, Fire, Food, and Seven Days,” the words “And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram” could be mistaken for a complete command, promise, judgment, explanation, or doctrine.
