“And Moses brought Aaron’s sons, and put coats upon them, and girded them with girdles, and put bonnets upon them; as the Lord commanded Moses.”
Then Moses brought Aaron's sons forward, put tunics on them, tied sashes around them and fastened caps on them, as the Lord commanded Moses. The dressing of Aaron's sons follows the dressing of Aaron: tunics, sashes, and caps — the three garments of the ordinary priests rather than the six garments of the high priest. Moses dresses them as he dressed Aaron, following the same order and the same principle: the mediator clothing the servants for their service. The command formula closes the dressing of the sons as it closed the dressing of Aaron. The ordination ceremony follows its prescribed order without deviation.
