11 "You shall slaughter the bull before the Lord at the doorway of the tent of meeting . 12 "You shall take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger ; and you shall pour out all the blood at the base of the altar . 13 "You shall take all the fat that covers the entrails and the lobe of the liver , and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, and offer them up in smoke on the altar . 14 "But the flesh of the bull and its hide and its refuse , you shall burn with fire outside e the camp ; it is a sin offering .

Commentary on Exodus 29:1-37
(Read Exodus 29:1-37)
Aaron and his sons were to be set apart for the priest's office, with ceremony and solemnity. Our Lord Jesus is the great High Priest of our profession, called of God to be so; anointed with the Spirit, whence he is called Messiah, the Christ; clothed with glory and beauty; sanctified by his own blood; made perfect, or consecrated through sufferings, Matthew 12:28,) and by him the merit of Christ is applied to our souls. This consecration signifies the admission of a sinner into the spiritual priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
