Leviticus 8: This chapter talks about the ordination of the priests (Aaron's sons). God spoke Moses: "Take Aaron and with him his sons, the garments, the anointing oil, the bull for the Absolution-Offering, the two rams, and the basket of unraised bread. Gather the entire congregation at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.” Moses did just as God commanded him and the congregation gathered at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.
Leviticus 9: This chapter continues the discussion of the right steps for offerings to God. " Aaron lifted his hands over the people and blessed them. Having completed the rituals of the Absolution-Offering, the Whole-Burnt-Offering, and the Peace-Offering, he came down from the Altar. Moses and Aaron entered the Tent of Meeting. When they came out they blessed the people and the Glory of God appeared to all the people. Fire blazed out from God and consumed the Whole-Burnt-Offering and the fat pieces on the Altar. When all the people saw it happen they cheered loudly and then fell down, bowing in reverence." So it appears that the rituals of Absolution-Offering, the Whole-Burnt-Offering, and the Peace-Offering were completed successfully and that God was pleased with their efforts.
