SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:15
y lo degolló; y Moisés tomó la sangre, y puso con su dedo sobre los cuernos del altar alrededor, y expió el altar; y echó la demás sangre al cimiento del altar, y lo santificó para reconciliar sobre él.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 15. And he slew it , etc.] Not Aaron, nor any of his sons, who as yet were not fully consecrated and installed into their office, but Moses, as follows: and Moses took the blood ; which was received into a basin when the bullock was slain: and put [it] upon the horns of the altar round about with his finger ; upon the four horns of the altar, which were at the four corners of it, and dipping his finger into the blood, he besmeared the horns with it, and drew it about with his finger here and there; and so is said to be done round about the altar, as these horns were: and purified the altar ; or cleansed it; not from moral guilt and pollution, which it was incapable of, but from all ceremonial pollution it might be supposed to have: and poured the blood at the bottom of the altar ; the rest of the blood he did not use about the horns: and sanctified it ; separated it from common to sacred use: to make reconciliation upon it ; that it might be fit to have sacrifices offered on it to make atonement and reconciliation for sins; for which reason it was necessary it should itself be pure and holy, in such sense it was capable of being so.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-36 - In these types we see our great High Priest, even Christ Jesus solemnly appointed, anointed, and invested with his sacred office, by his own blood, and the influences of his Holy Spirit. He sanctifies the ordinances of religion, to the benefit of his people and the honour of God the Father; who for his sake accepts our worship, though it is polluted with sin. We may also rejoice, that he is a merciful an faithful High Priest, full of compassion to the feeble-minded an tempest-tossed soul. All true Christians are consecrated to be spiritual priests. We should seriously ask ourselves, whether in ou daily walk we study to maintain this character? and abound in spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Christ? If so, still there is n cause for boasting. Let us not despise our fellow-sinners; but remembering what we have done, and how we are saved, let us seek an pray for their salvation __________________________________________________________________
