Aliya 5וַיַּגֵּ֕שׁ אֵ֖ת פַּ֣ר הַֽחַטָּ֑את וַיִּסְמֹ֨ךְ אַהֲרֹ֤ן וּבָנָיו֙ אֶת־יְדֵיהֶ֔ם עַל־רֹ֖אשׁ פַּ֥ר הַֽחַטָּֽאת׃
Following the initial consecration of the Tabernacle and the priests, Moses began the sacrificial service: He brought forward the bull of the sin offering, and just as any individual who brings an offering lays his hands on his offering, Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering.
וַיִּשְׁחָ֗ט וַיִּקַּ֨ח מֹשֶׁ֤ה אֶת־הַדָּם֙ וַ֠יִּתֵּן עַל־קַרְנ֨וֹת הַמִּזְבֵּ֤חַ סָבִיב֙ בְּאֶצְבָּע֔וֹ וַיְחַטֵּ֖א אֶת־הַמִּזְבֵּ֑חַ וְאֶת־הַדָּ֗ם יָצַק֙ אֶל־יְס֣וֹד הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חַ וַֽיְקַדְּשֵׁ֖הוּ לְכַפֵּ֥ר עָלָֽיו׃
He, Moses,
RASHI
ויחטא את המזבח.חִטְּאוֹ וְטִהֲרוֹ מִזָּרוּת לִכָּנֵס לִקְדֻשָּׁה:
ויקדשהו.בַּעֲבוֹדָה זוֹ:
לכפר עליו.מֵעַתָּה כָּל הַכַּפָּרוֹת:
וַיִּקַּ֗ח אֶֽת־כָּל־הַחֵלֶב֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עַל־הַקֶּרֶב֒ וְאֵת֙ יֹתֶ֣רֶת הַכָּבֵ֔ד וְאֶת־שְׁתֵּ֥י הַכְּלָיֹ֖ת וְאֶֽת־חֶלְבְּהֶ֑ן וַיַּקְטֵ֥ר מֹשֶׁ֖ה הַמִּזְבֵּֽחָה׃
He took all the fat that was on the innards, the diaphragm of, that is, above, the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and Moses burned it on the altar.
RASHI
הכבד.לְבַד הַכָּבֵד, שֶׁהָיָה נוֹטֵל מְעַט מִן הַכָּבֵד עִמָּהּ:
וְאֶת־הַפָּ֤ר וְאֶת־עֹרוֹ֙ וְאֶת־בְּשָׂר֣וֹ וְאֶת־פִּרְשׁ֔וֹ שָׂרַ֣ף בָּאֵ֔שׁ מִח֖וּץ לַֽמַּחֲנֶ֑ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃
The bull, its hide, its flesh, and its dung that remained in its intestines, he burned in fire outside the camp, as the Lord had commanded Moses. Normally, only a sin offering whose blood is sprinkled inside the Sanctuary is burned outside the camp (see 4:13–21, 16:27). Nevertheless, God commanded that this bull should be burned outside the camp as well, even though its blood was sprinkled on the external altar, outside the Sanctuary.
וַיַּקְרֵ֕ב אֵ֖ת אֵ֣יל הָעֹלָ֑ה וַֽיִּסְמְכ֞וּ אַהֲרֹ֧ן וּבָנָ֛יו אֶת־יְדֵיהֶ֖ם עַל־רֹ֥אשׁ הָאָֽיִל׃
Following the sacrifice of the sin offering, whose purpose was purification, the priests presented their burnt offering, brought as a gift:
וַיִּשְׁחָ֑ט וַיִּזְרֹ֨ק מֹשֶׁ֧ה אֶת־הַדָּ֛ם עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ סָבִֽיב׃
He slaughtered it, and Moses cast the blood around the altar, according to the laws of the burnt offering.
וְאֶת־הָאַ֔יִל נִתַּ֖ח לִנְתָחָ֑יו וַיַּקְטֵ֤ר מֹשֶׁה֙ אֶת־הָרֹ֔אשׁ וְאֶת־הַנְּתָחִ֖ים וְאֶת־הַפָּֽדֶר׃
H e cut the ram into its pieces, and Moses burned the head, the pieces, and the fats.
וְאֶת־הַקֶּ֥רֶב וְאֶת־הַכְּרָעַ֖יִם רָחַ֣ץ בַּמָּ֑יִם וַיַּקְטֵר֩ מֹשֶׁ֨ה אֶת־כָּל־הָאַ֜יִל הַמִּזְבֵּ֗חָה עֹלָ֨ה ה֤וּא לְרֵֽיחַ־נִיחֹ֙חַ֙ אִשֶּׁ֥ה הוּא֙ לַיהוָ֔ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃
The innards and the legs he washed with water, according to the laws of the burnt offering, and Moses burned the entire ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering for a pleasing aroma; it is a fire offering to the Lord as the Lord had commanded Moses.
