Exodus 29:35-37
New Catholic Bible
35 Do to Aaron and to his sons what I have commanded you to do. For seven days you shall consecrate them.
36 The Consecrated Altar and the Daily Sacrifice.“For each of seven days you shall offer a young bull as a sin offering for atonement. You shall also make a sin offering for the atonement for the altar, and shall anoint it to consecrate it. 37 For seven days you shall make atonement for the altar and consecrate it. It shall thus become a most holy thing, and whatever touches the altar will become holy.[a]
