The burnt-offering was presented according to the general rule ( Lev 1:3-9), as in Lev 8:18-21. המציא ( Lev 9:12): to cause to attain; here, and in Lev 9:18, to present, hand over. לנתחיה, according to its pieces, into which the burnt-offering was divided ( Lev 1:6), and which they offered to Aaron one by one. No meat-offering was connected with Aaron's burnt-offerings, partly because the law contained in Num 15:2. had not yet been given, but more especially because Aaron had to bring the special meat-offering commanded in Lev 6:13, and had offered this in connection with the morning burnt-offering mentioned in Lev 9:17; though this offering, as being a constant one, and not connected with the offerings especially belonging to the consecration of the priests, is not expressly mentioned. Leviticus 9:15
