On the eighth day, Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel; See also: Matthew 28:1Numbers 6:10Leviticus 15:29and he said to Aaron, “Take a calf from the herd for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without defect, and offer them before the LORD. See also: Leviticus 4:3Leviticus 8:14Leviticus 8:18You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Take a male goat for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both a year old, without defect, for a burnt offering; See also: Ezra 6:17Leviticus 4:23Titus 2:14and a bull and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD; and a meal offering mixed with oil: for today the LORD appears to you.’” See also: Exodus 29:43Leviticus 9:23Leviticus 9:6They brought what Moses commanded before the Tent of Meeting. All the congregation came near and stood before the LORD. See also: Deuteronomy 31:12Exodus 19:171 Chronicles 15:3Moses said, “This is the thing which the LORD commanded that you should do; and the LORD’s glory shall appear to you.” See also: Leviticus 9:23Exodus 24:16Ezekiel 43:2Moses said to Aaron, “Draw near to the altar, and offer your sin offering, and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself, and for the people; and offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as the LORD commanded.” See also: Hebrews 5:3Hebrews 5:1Hebrews 9:7So Aaron came near to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself. See also: Leviticus 1:4-5Leviticus 4:1-12Leviticus 4:29The sons of Aaron presented the blood to him; and he dipped his finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar; See also: Leviticus 8:15Leviticus 4:6-7Leviticus 16:18but the fat, and the kidneys, and the cover from the liver of the sin offering, he burned upon the altar, as the LORD commanded Moses. See also: Isaiah 66:2Leviticus 4:34-35Proverbs 23:26The meat and the skin he burned with fire outside the camp. See also: Leviticus 8:17Leviticus 4:11-12Leviticus 16:27-28He killed the burnt offering; and Aaron’s sons delivered the blood to him, and he sprinkled it around on the altar. See also: Ephesians 5:2Leviticus 1:1-17Leviticus 8:18-21They delivered the burnt offering to him, piece by piece, and the head. He burned them upon the altar. He washed the innards and the legs, and burned them on the burnt offering on the altar. See also: Leviticus 8:21He presented the people’s offering, and took the goat of the sin offering which was for the people, and killed it, and offered it for sin, like the first. See also: Leviticus 4:27-31Hebrews 2:17Hebrews 5:3He presented the burnt offering, and offered it according to the ordinance. See also: Leviticus 9:12-14Leviticus 1:1-13Leviticus 8:18-21He presented the meal offering, and filled his hand from there, and burned it upon the altar, in addition to the burnt offering of the morning. See also: Leviticus 2:1-2Exodus 29:38-42John 6:53He also killed the bull and the ram, the sacrifice of peace offerings, which was for the people. Aaron’s sons delivered to him the blood, which he sprinkled around on the altar; See also: Ephesians 2:14-17Romans 5:1Colossians 1:20and the fat of the bull and of the ram, the fat tail, and that which covers the innards, and the kidneys, and the cover of the liver; See also: Leviticus 3:5Leviticus 3:16Leviticus 9:10and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burned the fat on the altar. See also: Leviticus 3:14-17Leviticus 7:29-34Aaron waved the breasts and the right thigh for a wave offering before the LORD, as Moses commanded. See also: Leviticus 7:30-341 Peter 4:11Leviticus 7:26Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; and he came down from offering the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings.

Notes in English 19th-century Catholic commentary by Fr. George Leo Haydock, shown as published.
These notes keep the polemics of their time: some speak harshly of the Jewish people or of other Christians. The Church teaches otherwise today. The Jewish people may not be blamed for the death of Christ (Nostra Aetate 4; Catechism 597–598), and Christians of other communities are our brothers and sisters in the Lord (Unitatis Redintegratio 3).
