Only, the priests had become few, and were not able to skin all of the burnt offerings; and their brothers the Levites strengthened them until the work was completed, and until the priests cleansed themselves; for the Levites were more upright of heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
And it happened as the priests were going from the sanctuary (for all the priests who were present had sanctified themselves without observing divisions),
And Moses said to Aaron, It is that which Jehovah has spoken, saying, I will be sanctified by those drawing near to Me; and I will be honored before all the people. And Aaron was silent.
