Join me as we learnish for shabis parav the seventh. So reading chapter 8 verse took this is continuing now the installation process of Moshe training his brother Aaron and his sons as we continued for the past few days and Moshe took from the anointing oil and from the blood that was on the altar and he sprinkled it on Aaron on his garments and on his sons and his son's garments. This way of this way and his clothing became sanctified and the clothing of and his sons and his sons clothing together with him. Verse and Moshe now said to Aaron and his sons cook the meat where you at the entrance of the tent of meeting and that's where you should eat it. That means do not take it outside the courtyard. You should eat it there. Along with that, you're going to eat as well. The bread which is in the basket of the insulation offerings like I was commanded like I have commanded saying and the sons must eat it in this location and on the day that the sacrifice was brought and whatever is left over in the flesh in the bread must be burned. the following morning must be burnt. And from the entrance of the tent of meeting, you should not leave for the next seven days for the next seven days until the end of the day that completes your installation days because for seven days he will install you and he will make you for proper and ready to work in the priesthood that you have to go undergo these rituals and prepare for that time. Verse 34. as he had done on this day, God has commanded to do to atone for you. What does this mean? Rashi explains the meaning what I did with you during these seven days. It's a short verse meaning I should have done I will do with you for the seven days. The rabbis explained as follows to do. This is the action that he did with the bull the red heer. When he says to atone, this refers to the action of teaching us that when the before bringing the sacrifice for yamiper, he would then separate. He would not be at home for seven days. He would have to stay in the holy temple to avoid him becoming impure as we see in the laws pertaining to Yum Kipper. So too the Cohen would burn the ashes of the red heer as well. In order for him to stay pure, he would not be home for seven days. He would have to separate for seven days. Verse 35 being that you cannot leave. So therefore, you're going to stay day and night for seven days at the entrance of the of the mode of the tent of meeting for seven days. And this way you going to keep a God's watchm God's watch in order that you will not die for thus I was commanded. Meaning that complying not complying to what the installation ritual should be is liable for a capital offense. as Rashi explains. But if you're not going to behave this way and you're going to think you're going to be able to leave or whatever it may be, this is capital punishment. Verse 36 and his sons did all these things the way God commanded them through Moshe. What is it telling us? Why does the Torah have to conclude with this verse telling us to tell us the praise of and the sons that they did not go to the right or to the left meaning that they did not become more strict than did not become less lenient. They followed exactly what the instructions were to the particular laws as Moshe told them. This concludes the tow reading of paras.
