Leviticus 8:22 - 8:29

8:22 Then he brought the second ram near, the ram of the consecration, and Aaron and his sons placed their hands on the ram’s head,
8:23 and he slaughtered it. Then Moses took some of its blood and put it on Aaron’s right ear lobe and on his right hand’s thumb and on his right foot’s big toe.
8:24 Then he brought Aaron’s sons near, and Moses put some of the blood on their right ear lobe and on their right hand’s thumb and on their right foot’s big toe, and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar all around.
8:25 Then he took the fat and the fat tail and all of the fat that was on the inner parts and the lobe of the liver and the two kidneys and their fat and the right upper thigh;
8:26 and from the basket of the unleavened bread that was before Yahweh he took one ring-shaped unleavened bread and one ring-shaped bread with oil and one wafer, and he placed them on the fat parts and on the right upper thigh.
8:27 Then he put all of these on Aaron’s palms and on his sons’ palms, and he waved them as a wave offering before Yahweh.
8:28 Then Moses took them from upon their palms, and he turned them into smoke upon the burnt offering on the altar; they were a consecration offering as an appeasing fragrance—it was an offering made by fire for Yahweh.
8:29 Then Moses took the breast section, and he waved it as a wave offering before Yahweh from the ram of the consecration offering; it was Moses’ share, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

9:3 And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man is blaspheming!”

9:32 A Demon Expelled Now as they were going away, behold, they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was unable to speak.
9:33 And after the demon had been expelled, the one who had been mute spoke, and the crowds were astonished, saying, “This has never been seen before in Israel!”
