And he shall immolate the calf before the Lord: and the priests the sons of Aaron shall offer the blood thereof, pouring it round about the altar, which is before the door of the tabernacle.
וְשָׁחַ֛ט אֶת־בֶּ֥ן הַבָּקָ֖ר לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וְ֠הִקְרִיבוּ בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֤ן הֽ͏ַכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ אֶת־הַדָּ֔ם וְזָרְק֨וּ אֶת־הַדָּ֤ם עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֙חַ֙ סָבִ֔יב אֲשֶׁר־פֶּ֖תַח אֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵֽד׃
2 Church Fathers comment on this verse
It is ordained that the offerings must be sacrificed and placed on the altar for the descendants of Aaron, so that in the sight of the individual presenting the offering, it holds greater significance when they witness the descendants of Aaron making the offering themselves.
You extinguish your offering when you, through the Spirit, put to death the desires and passions of the flesh; you purify it when you grieve for your past transgressions.
