“And he brought Aaron’s sons, and Moses put of the blood upon the tip of their right ear, and upon the thumbs of their right hands, and upon the great toes of their right feet: and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.”
Moses also brought Aaron's sons forward and put some of the blood on the lobes of their right ears, on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Then he splashed blood against the sides of the altar. Aaron's sons receive the same blood application as Aaron: right ear, right thumb, right big toe. The four acts of ordination — washing, dressing, anointing, and blood-marking — are applied equally to Aaron and his sons. The sons who serve alongside the high priest are ordained with the same marks and the same consecration. The priestly community is equally consecrated, though the high priest's vestments and access are unique.
