Filling the Hand

The Hebrew idiom for ordaining a priest is to fill the hand, and YLT alone keeps it. What fills it, over seven days: a bull and two rams, unleavened bread, oil poured on the head, and blood put on the right ear, the right thumb and the right big toe. Leviticus 14 prescribes the same three points for readmitting someone recovered from a skin disease — so the rite marks not rank but crossing into a status you did not hold before.
