Aaron and his sons got consecrated, it was quite the shindig.

Moises gave the three of them a bath (??)

And Moses brought Aaron and his sons and washed them with water.

Leviticus 8.6

I dunno.

In Japan I have been in a 銭湯 more than once.

That’s a communal bath house.

I thought it would freak me out, but I actually liked it.

I even went back a second time.

But I got to wash myself!

In verse 5, Moses wants everyone to know he is not questioning his gender,

he did what he did,

because “this is what the Lord commanded to be done.”

Go figure!
