Exodus 29:16

29:16 and you are to kill the ram and take its blood and splash it all around on the altar.

Exodus 29:31

29:31 “You are to take the ram of the consecration and cook ¹  its meat in a holy place. ² 

Exodus 39:34

39:34 and the coverings of ram skins dyed red, the covering of fine leather, ³  and the protecting ⁴  curtain;

---

¹ tn Or “boil” (see Lev 8:31).

² sn The “holy place” must be in the courtyard of the sanctuary. Lev 8:31 says it is to be cooked at the entrance of the tent of meeting. Here it says it will be eaten there as well. This, then, becomes a communion sacrifice, a peace offering which was a shared meal. Eating a communal meal in a holy place was meant to signify that the worshipers and the priests were at peace with God.

³ tn See the note on this phrase in Exod 25:5.

⁴ tn Or “shielding” (NIV); NASB “the screening veil.”
