Key Reflection

In Exodus 29:11, the act of bringing the bull before the Tent of Meeting symbolizes the transition of Aaron and his sons from mere mortals to priests appointed by God. By laying their hands on the head of the bull, they participate in a ritual that transfers both responsibility and authority to this new priestly role. This gesture connects them directly with the sacrificial act, reinforcing their sacred vocation and underscoring the divine commission they have received.
