**eighth day:** i.e. the day following the seven days of consecration ([Leviticus 8:33](../../../kjv/leviticus/8/33) , [Leviticus 8:35](../../../kjv/leviticus/8/35) ).

**sin offering.** Hebrew. *chat'a.* App-43 .
**offer.** Hebrew. *karab.*
**before the LORD** = before the door of the tent of meeting ([Leviticus 1:5](../../../kjv/leviticus/1/5) , [Leviticus 1:11](../../../kjv/leviticus/1/11) ).

**offer** = prepare. Hebrew. *'asah.* App-43 .
**thy sin offering.** Ancient Jewish interpretation refers this "calf" ([Leviticus 9:8](../../../kjv/leviticus/9/8) ) to the sin of the golden calf. The People's share in that sin is referred to in [Leviticus 9:15](../../../kjv/leviticus/9/15) . Compare Ex. Lev 32:35 , "they made ([Exodus 32:1](../../../kjv/exodus/32/1) ) the calf which Aaron made" ([Leviticus 9:4](../../../kjv/leviticus/9/4) ).

**offering.** Hebrew. *korban.* App-43 .
**as** = according as.

**the calf.** See note on [Leviticus 9:7](../../../kjv/leviticus/9/7) . Aaron slew this himself, like any other offerer, as it was for his *own* sin ([Leviticus 1:5](../../../kjv/leviticus/1/5) ).

**offered.** Hebrew. *chata* (verb), to offer a sin offering. App-43 .

**manner** = ordinance, or regulation. Compare the same word in [Leviticus 5:10](../../../kjv/leviticus/5/10) .

**came down.** Does not imply "steps", which were forbidden ([Exodus 20:26](../../../kjv/exodus/20/26) ). Probably = the margin or edge. See note on [Exodus 27:5](../../../kjv/exodus/27/5) .

**blessed the People.** This joint blessing is given in the Chaldee version of the Pentateuch, thus: "May the word of Jehovah accept your sacrifice with favour, and remit and pardon your sins. "
**glory of the LORD.** According to the promise in [Leviticus 9:4](../../../kjv/leviticus/9/4) . See the Structure, p. 144.
