Vayikra 8

8:22

וַיַּקְרֵב אֶת־הָאַיִל הַשֵּׁנִי אֵיל הַמִּלֻּאִים וַֽיִּסְמְכוּ אַהֲרֹן וּבָנָיו אֶת־יְדֵיהֶם עַל־רֹאשׁ הָאָֽיִל׃

He brought the second ram, the ram for the installation-offering; and Aharon and his sons laid their hands on the rams head.

He brought the second ram, the ram for the installation-offering; and Aharon and his sons laid their hands on the rams head.

Rashi

איל המלאים. אֵיל הַשְּׁלָמִים, שֶׁמִּלּוּאִים לְשׁוֹן שְׁלָמִים, שֶׁמְּמַלְּאִין וּמַשְׁלִימִין אֶת הַכֹּהֲנִים בִּכְהֻנָּתָם:

איל המלאים — This means the same as איל השלמים, for the word מלואים is synonymous with the word שלמים; this term is used to describe the ram because by means of it they set the priest fully (ממלאין) and completely (משלימין) in their priestly office (cf. Sifra, Tzav, Mechilta d'Miluim 1 20).

8:23

וַיִּשְׁחָט ׀ וַיִּקַּח מֹשֶׁה מִדָּמוֹ וַיִּתֵּן עַל־תְּנוּךְ אֹֽזֶן־אַהֲרֹן הַיְמָנִית וְעַל־בֹּהֶן יָדוֹ הַיְמָנִית וְעַל־בֹּהֶן רַגְלוֹ הַיְמָנִֽית׃

He slaughtered it; and Moshe took some of its blood and he put it on Aharons right earlobe, on the thumb of his right hand and the big toe of his right foot.

He slaughtered it; and Moshe took some of its blood and he put it on Aharons right earlobe, on the thumb of his right hand and the big toe of his right foot.

8:24

וַיַּקְרֵב אֶת־בְּנֵי אַהֲרֹן וַיִּתֵּן מֹשֶׁה מִן־הַדָּם עַל־תְּנוּךְ אׇזְנָם הַיְמָנִית וְעַל־בֹּהֶן יָדָם הַיְמָנִית וְעַל־בֹּהֶן רַגְלָם הַיְמָנִית וַיִּזְרֹק מֹשֶׁה אֶת־הַדָּם עַל־הַֽמִּזְבֵּחַ סָבִֽיב׃

He brought the sons of Aharon; and Moshe put some blood on their right earlobes and on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Moshe sprinkled the blood all around the altar.

He brought the sons of Aharon; and Moshe put some blood on their right earlobes and on the thumbs of their right hands and on the big toes of their right feet. Moshe sprinkled the blood all around the altar.

8:25

וַיִּקַּח אֶת־הַחֵלֶב וְאֶת־הָֽאַלְיָה וְאֶֽת־כׇּל־הַחֵלֶב אֲשֶׁר עַל־הַקֶּרֶב וְאֵת יֹתֶרֶת הַכָּבֵד וְאֶת־שְׁתֵּי הַכְּלָיֹת וְאֶֽת־חֶלְבְּהֶן וְאֵת שׁוֹק הַיָּמִֽין׃

He took the fat and the fat tail, all the fat on the innards, the lobe of the liver, the two kidneys and their fats and the right thigh.

He took the fat and the fat tail, all the fat on the innards, the lobe of the liver, the two kidneys and their fats and the right thigh.

8:26

וּמִסַּל הַמַּצּוֹת אֲשֶׁר ׀ לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה לָקַח חַלַּת מַצָּה אַחַת וְֽחַלַּת לֶחֶם שֶׁמֶן אַחַת וְרָקִיק אֶחָד וַיָּשֶׂם עַל־הַחֲלָבִים וְעַל שׁוֹק הַיָּמִֽין׃

From the basket of matzos which [was] before Adonoy he took one matzoh loaf, one oil-bread and one wafer and he placed them on the fats and on the right thigh.

From the basket of matzos which [was] before Adonoy he took one matzoh loaf, one oil-bread and one wafer and he placed them on the fats and on the right thigh.

Rashi

וחלת לחם שמן. הִיא רְבוּכָה שֶׁהָיָה מַרְבֶּה בָּהּ שֶׁמֶן כְּנֶגֶד הַחַלּוֹת וְהָרְקִיקִין, כָּךְ מְפֹרָשׁ בִּמְנָחוֹת (דף פ"ט):

וחלת לחם שמן AND A CAKE OF OILED BREAD — This was a scalded cake, and it is called “oiled bread” because he used a large quantity of oil for it, equal to that which he used for the cakes and wafers together. So is it explained in Treatise Menachot 78a (also Menachot 89a).

8:27

וַיִּתֵּן אֶת־הַכֹּל עַל כַּפֵּי אַהֲרֹן וְעַל כַּפֵּי בָנָיו וַיָּנֶף אֹתָם תְּנוּפָה לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָֽה׃

He put them all on Aharons palms and on the palms of his sons and he waved them as a wave-offering before Adonoy.

He put them all on Aharons palms and on the palms of his sons and he waved them as a wave-offering before Adonoy.

8:28

וַיִּקַּח מֹשֶׁה אֹתָם מֵעַל כַּפֵּיהֶם וַיַּקְטֵר הַמִּזְבֵּחָה עַל־הָעֹלָה מִלֻּאִים הֵם לְרֵיחַ נִיחֹחַ אִשֶּׁה הוּא לַיהֹוָֽה׃

Moshe took them from their palms and he burned them on the altar in addition to the burnt-offering; they are installation-offerings for a pleasing fragrance, it is a fire-offering to Adonoy.

Moshe took them from their palms and he burned them on the altar in addition to the burnt-offering; they are installation-offerings for a pleasing fragrance, it is a fire-offering to Adonoy.

Rashi

ויקטר המזבחה. מֹשֶׁה שִׁמֵּשׁ כָּל שִׁבְעַת יְמֵי הַמִּלּוּאִים בְּחָלוּק לָבָן (עבודה זרה ל"ד):

ויקטר המזבחה [AND MOSES TOOK THEM FROM OFF THEIR HANDS] AND CAUSED THEM TO ASCEND IN FUMES AT THE ALTAR — Moses (though a non-priest) was officiating during the seven days of installation [in a white garment] (Avodah Zarah 34a).

על העלה. אַחַר הָעוֹלָה, וְלֹא מָצִינוּ שׁוֹק שֶׁל שְׁלָמִים קָרֵב בְּכָל מָקוֹם חוּץ מִזֶּה:

על העלה [AND MOSES … CAUSED THEM TO ASCEND IN FUMES] על העלה — after the burnt offering (על is taken in the sense of besides, in addition to the burnt offering. Hence he burnt it after the burnt offering). We do not find in any passage, that the shoulder of peace-offerings was burnt except in the case of this alone (cf. Rashi on Exodus 29:22).

8:29

וַיִּקַּח מֹשֶׁה אֶת־הֶחָזֶה וַיְנִיפֵהוּ תְנוּפָה לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה מֵאֵיל הַמִּלֻּאִים לְמֹשֶׁה הָיָה לְמָנָה כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהֹוָה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃

Moshe took the breast and waved it [as] a wave-offering before Adonoy. From the ram for the installation-offering—that was the portion of Moshe—just as Adonoy commanded Moshe.
