SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:9
Después puso la mitra sobre su cabeza; y sobre la mitra delante de su rostro puso la plancha de oro, la corona de la santidad; como El SEÑOR había mandado a Moisés.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Leviticus 8:9
Verse 9. And he put the mitre] See the note on "Exodus xxviii. 36".
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 9. And he put the mitre upon his head , etc.] Which was made of fine linen, and was a wrap of that of a considerable length about his head, ( Exodus 28:39) also upon the mitre, [even] upon his forefront, did he put the golden plate ; which was put upon the forehead of the high priest, reaching from ear to ear, and was fastened to the mitre with a blue lace, and had on it this inscription, “holiness to the Lord”: ( Exodus 28:36,37) and is here therefore called the holy crown : denoting both the sanctity and the dignity of the high priest, and typical of Christ, who is holiness itself, and to his people, and is now crowned with glory and honour, being a priest upon the throne: hence the Jews speak of the crown of the law, and of the crown of the kingdom, and of the crown of the priesthood: and this, as all the rest, was done as the Lord commanded Moses ; all these were made according to the divine order, and were put on in the manner and form he directed him; of the mystery of the mitre and the crown, (see Gill on “ Exodus 28:36,37, 39”).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-13 - The consecration of Aaron and his sons had been delayed until the tabernacle had been prepared, and the laws of the sacrifices given Aaron and his sons were washed with water, to signify that they ough to purify themselves from all sinful dispositions, and ever after to keep themselves pure. Christ washes those from their sins in his ow blood whom he makes kings and priests to our God, Re 1:5, 6; and thos that draw near to God must be washed in pure water, Heb 10:22. The anointing of Aaron was to typify the anointing of Christ with the Spirit, which was not given by measure to him. All believers have received the anointing.
