“And he shall wash his flesh with water in the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for himself, and for the people.”
He shall bathe himself with water in the sanctuary area and put on his regular garments. Then he shall come out and sacrifice the burnt offering for himself and the burnt offering for the people, to make atonement for himself and for the people. After removing the linen vestments and bathing in the sanctuary area, Aaron puts on his regular high priestly garments and offers the burnt offerings for himself and for the people. The burnt offerings after the sin offerings of the Day of Atonement follow the same sequence as the ordination ceremony and the eighth-day ministry: sin offering (atonement) followed by burnt offering (total consecration). The Day of Atonement concludes with the same offering sequence that inaugurated the priestly ministry.
