Exodus 29:1-21

TRANSCRIPT
Our text for tonight's message is taken from Exodus 29:1-21, and the title is “The Ordination of Priests”.
We recently ordained Brother Jeffrey Mang in one of our Myanmar mission churches at Ngalti B-P Church. Due to the chaotic political situation in Myanmar, I was unable to attend his ordination. And our mission pastors, Reverend Biak and Reverend Lian Uk, were there to ordain him. Any pastor who has been ordained will tell you that the ordination to the gospel ministry is an unforgettable experience, and it takes years of spiritual preparation.
It goes something like this: firstly, God will bring the person to salvation in Christ through the gospel. Secondly, God will work in his life in such a way that he has this irresistible desire to preach the gospel for the saving of souls and the edification of the saints. In order for him to do that, he must know the Word of God. Therefore, thirdly, he will be devoted to studying the Bible, perhaps be enrolled in a Bible college to learn theology in a systematic way. Fourthly, upon his graduation from the Bible college, he will serve in the church, exercising his spiritual gifts in teaching and shepherding the congregation.
This is the time when he will be observed and examined by the spiritual leaders – the Board of Elders. Then, he will have to write theological papers to state his doctrinal position and be interviewed by the ordination council, which is made up of a group of ministers. Finally, he will be required to stand before the congregation and promise to give his life to serve God, to preach, and to defend the Bible at all costs, against all opposition. He will kneel down before God, and the ordination council will lay their hands upon him to affirm, commit, and set him apart for holy service. When he stands up, he has a new calling – he is known as a minister of the gospel.
So, the ordination of a minister is a long process, and this passage in Exodus 29:1-21 is about the ordination of the high priest and the priests. What they did during the ordination was even more elaborate. The reason was simply because, just as the spiritual welfare of the church depends on the minister, whether he is faithful or not, likewise, the spiritual welfare of the entire nation depended on the priests, as they represented the people before God.
Some people would be thinking, ‘Well, this passage is about the ordination of priests or ministers, and since I’m not called to be a pastor, it has nothing to do with me.’ But nothing could be further from the truth – it has everything to do with you. This is what we want to learn from this passage. We will approach it by first considering what the ordination meant to the people in those days, and then what it means to us today as believers of Jesus Christ.
I. What It Meant To Them
Firstly, let us consider what it meant to them.
Notice this: God gave specific instructions as to how the high priest and priests were to be ordained. Exodus 29:1, “And this is the thing that thou shalt do unto them to hallow them” – which means to consecrate them, to set them apart – “to minister unto me in the priest's office”. The priests, like all the rest of the people, were sinners. There was a huge gap between them and the holy and just God. The only way to bridge this huge gap was through a sacrifice. Therefore, they must take “one young bullock, and two rams without blemish, and unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened tempered with oil, and wafers unleavened anointed with oil: of wheat flour shalt thou make them. And thou shalt put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket, with the bullock and the two rams” (Exodus 29:1-3).
The animals had to be perfect, and together with the unleavened bread, they were presented to God as sacrifices for their sins. Once their sins were atoned for, then they had to be washed from head to toe, as Exodus 29:4 tells us. This washing was a symbol of spiritual purification. They were not allowed to enter the Tabernacle or handle anything in the holy place until they had been cleansed.
Once they were washed and cleansed, they were dressed in priestly garments. Look at Exodus 29:5, “And thou shalt take the garments, and put upon Aaron the coat, and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and gird him with the curious girdle of the ephod”. “Curious girdle” means skilfully-crafted waistband.
“And thou shalt put the mitre upon his head, and put the holy crown upon the mitre” (Exodus 29:6). We have learned in our previous message that there was a sign on the forehead of Aaron, the high priest, “Holiness to the Lord”. God is perfectly holy, and the person approaching Him must also be holy. This sign was like the finishing touch to his entire garment, signifying that he was holy and righteous.
Finally, Aaron, the high priest, was ready to be ordained. God commanded Moses in Exodus 29:7, “Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him”. According to Psalm 133:2, this precious oil was poured on his head, running down to his beard, and all the way down to the edge of his garment. In other words, it covered him from head to bottom. Now, the anointing with oil was the act of setting him apart for the office of the high priest. And it was symbolic that God had poured on him His Spirit to do the work.
This ordination process was also done on the other priests, the sons of Aaron. Look at verse 8, “And thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon them. And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and put the bonnets” – another name for turbans – “on them: and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute: and thou shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons” (Exodus 29:8-9). In other words, generation after generation, the children of Israel would ordain their priests in the same way: firstly, by offering sacrifices; then by the washing with water; followed by being clothed with the priestly garments; and finally, by being anointed with oil.
It was extremely important for them to be reminded that they were approaching, worshipping, and serving the Almighty God. And if they were to be unholy or to do anything otherwise, they would be destroyed.
Sadly, later on in Leviticus 10, the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, were destroyed because they offered unholy worship in the Tabernacle. Turn with me to Leviticus 10, and consider this passage, especially Leviticus 10:2, which says, “And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them” – which means they were burnt completely – “and they died before the LORD”. Do not play the fool with God. A moment ago, they were alive, and then, all of a sudden, they were burnt completely and died in an instant.
But if you look down to Leviticus 10:5, when the people came and carried the bodies of Nadab and Abihu, interestingly, they “carried them in their coats out of the camp”. In other words, though the priests themselves were destroyed with fire, their garments were still preserved and intact. Some theologians believe that while the priests themselves were sinful and destroyed, their priestly garments – which represented the office of the priesthood – were still preserved. In a sense, this is very true.
There are some pastors who are sinful or do not perform their duties and responsibilities in the right way. God will remove them, whether by way of death or by disqualification. There are other pastors who may be faithful, but they still grow old and die. So pastors live and die, they come and go, but the office still continues. The death of a pastor is not the end of the church. God will raise up other pastors to take their place. Whether pastors, elders, or deacons, no one is indispensable in the church of Jesus Christ. If I die or I have to leave the church for any reason, please be assured that God will provide someone else, because ultimately, the church belongs to Him.
Then God went on to focus on their sacrifices. There were three kinds of sacrifices being offered, spread over a period of seven days. The first sacrifice was the sin offering, in Exodus 29:10-14, where Aaron and his sons would put their hands on the head of the bullock, signifying the transferring of their sins onto the unblemished animal. The animal would be killed in the courtyard outside the Tabernacle.
Its body would be burned on the altar, and its blood sprinkled on the horns of the altar, signifying that God had accepted the sacrifice as the atonement for their sins. The rest of the unclean parts of the animal would be taken outside the camp and burned. This is the first time the Bible mentions the term “it is a sin offering”, in Exodus 29:14, which shows that the priests needed to have their sins forgiven as much as anyone else.
The second sacrifice was the burnt offering, in Exodus 29:15-18. Whereby again, Aaron and his sons would put their hands on the head of the ram, and its blood would be sprinkled around the altar. The entire ram was burned in the flames, and nothing was left. This burnt offering was a symbol of total dedication to God. In the same way that the entire ram was offered to God, and nothing was left, so the priests themselves had to be totally dedicated to God.
Finally, the third sacrifice was the second ram, in Exodus 29:19-21. Look with me, “And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram. Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his blood, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron, and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons, and upon the thumb of their right hand, and upon the great toe of their right foot, and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about”.
“And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be hallowed, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him”.
This third sacrifice was only for the priests. Notice that the blood was not only sprinkled on the altar but also directly on their bodies and garments. The purpose was to sanctify the priests for their sacred duties. One theologian made this interesting observation: the blood was sprinkled on the tip of their right ear to signify that their ears were dedicated to hear the Word of God and to obey the Word of God. The blood was sprinkled on the thumb of their right hand to signify that their hands were dedicated to the service of God, and the blood was sprinkled on the toe of their right foot to signify that they were dedicated to walk in righteousness and live a sanctified life.
Take a moment and consider this graphic picture. By now, there would be blood everywhere, right? There was blood on the altar, there was blood all over their bodies, and there was blood on their garments. Remember: without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin (Hebrews 9:22). How much more do we need the blood to approach, worship, and serve the Almighty God? It is always the blood. We are saved by the blood, we are sanctified by the blood, we also worship and serve by virtue of the blood.
But whose blood? All the unblemished animals point to the ultimate unblemished Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, who would shed His precious blood once and for all on the cross of Calvary. Dear friend, remember: the whole Tabernacle points to the Lord Jesus Christ. John 1:14 says that Jesus Christ, the Word was made flesh, and tabernacled among us.
The Tabernacle was symbolic of His incarnation. The golden lampstand symbolised Jesus as the light of the world. The shewbread symbolised Him as the bread of life. Even the veil that separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place symbolised His death and the shedding of His precious blood had opened the way to God – there is only one way, and that is through the unblemished Lamb of God, Jesus Christ.
Likewise, the first sacrifice symbolised that Jesus was the sin offering that atoned for our sins. The second sacrifice symbolised that He was the burnt offering, totally dedicated and committed to be our substitute and died in our place. Therefore, you and I must also be totally dedicated and committed to Him as well. The third sacrifice symbolised that it was His blood that sanctifies us for the service of God.
But our Lord Jesus was not simply the sacrifice only. Remember, He was also the priest – the Great High Priest. As our priest, Jesus represents us before God. He intercedes on our behalf; He carries all our prayers before the Almighty God. As our priest, Jesus was also ordained to the priesthood in the sense that when He first started His public ministry, He entered the River Jordan to be baptised. Most of us are familiar with that passage. Jesus was washed, not because He was sinful – He was perfect – it was to set Him apart as the Priest for sinners like you and I.
After His baptism, heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended on Him in the form of a dove. In the Old Testament, the priests were anointed with oil to symbolise the Spirit setting them apart for God's service. But Jesus was anointed with the Spirit Himself. The Holy Spirit came upon Him in the fullness of His divine power, and He was known as the Anointed One.
Dear friend, isn’t it wonderful to know that we have a perfect Great High Priest to represent us? Pastors and ministers, no matter how great and faithful they are, they are not perfect and all-knowing, and they can never be with us forever. But we have an everlasting Great High Priest who loves us with a perfect love, who knows us better than we know ourselves, and who is always seated at the right hand of the Father interceding for us. And He is none other than Jesus Christ.
II. What It Means To Us
Let us move on to our second point: what it means to us.
There were four stages in the ordination of the priest: they had to offer the sacrifices and be sprinkled with the blood, be washed with water, be clothed with the priestly garments, and finally be anointed with oil. Isn’t that a picture of our lives as believers?
Firstly, you and I were saved through the sacrificial death and the shedding of Christ's blood. Secondly, we were washed with water. This reminds us of our Christian baptism, which signifies the washing away of our sins. Thirdly, we were clothed with the righteousness of Jesus Christ. Finally, we were anointed in the sense that we were indwelt with the Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit fills us and sets us apart unto God for His service.
That is reason why the New Testament takes this word “priest” and applies it to the believer. 1 Peter 2:9 says, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light”. Revelation 1:6 says that Jesus Christ “hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father”. Martin Luther, the great reformer, called this the priesthood of all believers.
So, dear friend, we must never think that worshipping and serving God is only for certain people like ministers, pastors, and missionaries. No doubt some are specially called by God to be ordained for the gospel ministry, but God has called all believers to serve Him as priests, to be consecrated and set apart for His holy service. That is your life and my life as believers.
As priests of the one living and true God, we have this holy obligation to serve Him. We are obligated to serve Him not in the Tabernacle but in the church, in the world, and wherever He will lead us. Just as the priests had to be consecrated and dedicated from head to bottom, we are obligated to be consecrated and dedicated to God 100%. Therefore, we cannot be living in sin. It does not mean we are perfect – no man is. As long as we are alive in this mortal body, we still commit sins. Each time we commit a sin, we must come before God, confess our sins, and need the blood of Jesus Christ to forgive and cleanse us.
We are obligated to present our bodies as a living sacrifice unto God, holy and acceptable unto Him, which is our reasonable service (Romans 12:1). The question is: how do we present our bodies as a living sacrifice? John Calvin writes, “By our bodies, it does not mean our skin and bones, but the totality of which we are composed.” In other words, our bodies do not only mean our physical beings but also the desires of our minds, our hearts, our thinking, our emotions, and our wills – everything about us; that is who we are.
Beginning with the mind, do we realise that what we do with our minds will determine a great deal as to what we will become as Christians? If we fill our minds with the value systems of this worldly culture, we will become secular and sinful. If we always fill our minds with the things we read, like sensuous novels, soon we will begin to talk and live like the characters we read about. Those people who love to watch movies – the more they watch those movies, the more they will live and behave like those celebrities. Is that not true?
On the other hand, if we fill our minds with the Word of God and good Christian books, if we train our minds by engaging in godly conversations, if we discipline our minds to critique whatever we hear and see, and then apply biblical truths, then we will be consecrated. We will become increasingly useful to God.
What about our eyes and our ears? We always tell our children, ‘Be careful, little eyes, what you see; be careful, little ears, what you hear.’ But how careful are we ourselves? I read an article that said by the age of 21, the average young person would be bombarded with at least 300,000 commercial messages – all focusing on personal gratification. The television we watch, the radio we listen to, the Internet, and modern forms of communication always put self before godliness. Very seldom do they mention godliness at all.
How are we going to be consecrated if our eyes and ears are constantly being bombarded by these worldly messages? The only way is to counter these messages with the Word of God. We have to read the Bible constantly, we have to pray, and attend church activities where God's truth will be taught. The whole counsel of His Word will teach you and help you.
What about our tongues? The tongue is also a part of our body, and what we do with it is extremely important – either for good or evil. As the saying goes, ‘You do not have to be a Hitler to do evil; with your tongue, a little slander and a little gossip is sufficient.’ James 3:6 says, “And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell”. Do we use our tongues to speak evil, or do we use our tongues to praise and serve God?
We can consecrate our tongues in many ways. We can recite scripture verses with our tongues. We can use our tongues to speak God's Word. What about worship? We can use our tongues to praise God by singing hymns and good Christian songs. Above all things, we can use our tongues to evangelise to those who are outside the kingdom of God, to tell them the good news that only Jesus Christ can save them.
What about our hands? In my previous ministry, where I used to work with former drug addicts and ex-prisoners, we always encouraged them, ‘These hands were once used to commit crimes and take drugs, but today, by the grace of God, these hands are used as instruments of righteousness to work, serve, and glorify the Almighty God.’
Every week, we give thanks for the food and refreshment after the worship service. Have you ever considered the hands that laboured in love quietly behind the scenes? Those brothers and sisters have to wake up early in the morning. They have to consider whether the food is sufficient for the people or not. A word of encouragement to the refreshment team: people may not know who you are, but God knows. He knows that you have consecrated your hands to serve Him and glorify Him.
What about our feet? Romans 10:15 says, “And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things”. Praise God for all the missionaries in Myanmar and Cebu, the Philippines. Not all of us can go for missions; only some of us can go. Not all of us can give to missions; perhaps some can give. But all of us can pray. And we pray that God will use us or someone else to go to places where the gospel has never been preached.
The school holidays are just around the corner. Where would you be going? Do you allow your feet to take you to where Jesus Christ is being denied and blasphemed, or do you let your feet take you into the company of people who love the Lord, who want to serve him?
Dear friend, we are a royal priesthood, and as priests, we must consecrate and present our bodies as a living sacrifice unto God – from the top to the bottom, from the mind, to our eyes and our ears, to our hands and our feet. This is how you and I ought to live our lives to serve the Lord Jesus Christ, the One who came for us, who died on the cross, shedding His precious blood to save us, sanctify us, and equip us to serve Him. He was buried, but death could not consume Him because on the third day, He rose again from the dead because of us. If we love him, then we will consecrate our lives and serve Him as a royal priesthood. Let us pray.
Father in heaven, indeed, oftentimes as we read passages like this which talk about the ordination of the high priest and priests, we tend to glance through it, thinking that it has nothing to do with us since we are not called to serve as pastors or ministers. Yet thou hast taught us and reminded us that it has everything to do with us. The New Testament takes the word “priest” and applies it to the believer. We are a royal priesthood, and as priests, we have this holy obligation toward Thee.
O Lord, remind us always, because as humans, we always forget. We are obligated to consecrate our lives, that we may present our bodies as a living sacrifice. We are obligated to serve Thee in the church and also in the world, and wherever Thou wilt lead us. We ought not to live in sin. We are not perfect. O Lord, if we have committed a sin, we humble ourselves before Thee and plead with Thee to forgive us and cleanse us by the precious blood of Thy only begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
We want to live our lives as a royal priesthood, as priests consecrated, that we may present ourselves unto Thee, holy and acceptable unto Thee, which is reasonable, because it reminds us of how much Thou loves us – our Lord Jesus, who came for us, died on the cross for us, and rose on the third day because of us. We love Thee because Thou first loved us. And we pray that all of us will live our days on this earth as priests, to glorify Thee, to the glory of Thy precious name. We pray all this in Jesus' name. Amen.
