John Trapp
Leviticus 8

Verse 1

Leviticus 8:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

And the Lord spake. See the note on Lev. 7:22. And for the rest of the chapter, read the notes on Exod. 28-30.

Verse 3

Leviticus 8:3 And gather thou all the congregation together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

And gather thou all the congregation. Ministers are to be ordained in the public assembly (Acts 14:22), that the people may show their approbation, profess their purpose of obedience, and pray for God's Spirit to be poured upon them.

Verse 6

Leviticus 8:6 And Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.

And Moses brought Aaron. They did not intrude themselves. See the note on Heb. 5:4.

Verse 8

Leviticus 8:8 And he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim.

He put in the breastplate the Urim, &c. Hence, it may be, God appointed the breastplate to be made double, that the Urim and Thummim might be put within, and lie hid on every side. This Urim and Thummim signified, saith one, that in Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Col. 2:3), and that he hath all secret things most perfectly known and numbered out before him, which he revealeth continually to his Church and chosen, as need requireth, by such means as himself hath sanctified (Ps. 25:14; John 14:21, 26; 17:14, 17, 26).
