3. In both to have His first place-for sanctified is here giving Him His highest glory; so glorified before the people.
8. Is not this the first 'time the Lord speaks to Aaron, now consecrated?
9. A disordered internal state-the excitement of flesh, and absence of the sober sense of the presence of God is as fatal as, perhaps leads to, strange fire; they are closely connected. The priests' sense of divine presence, and godly sobriety is needed to our senses distinguishing between sacred and profane, unclean and clean-the former what is fit for God, or the opposite-the latter for the saint, and the opposite; and to teach in the word; so ever.
14. Here "a clean place," not "holy"; the daughters eat of it. It was not a priestly eating, but provision, though due to the priests as offering. It is evident that the eating of the enu-phah (wave-offering) and t'ru-mah (heave-offering) was not a priestly act. They were consecrated and eaten by the priest's family, but in a clean place, not in the holy place as the rest of the min-khah (meat-offerings). Here the enuphah and t'ru-mah were peace-offerings founded on, but not a proper sacrifice. They were communion on a sacrifice itself, though identified with it—but the fat was always burned.
I have looked into the Levites elsewhere—they were a enu-phah and were waved before the Lord.
