Context — Food for the Priests
32At the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, Aaron and his sons are to eat the meat of the ram and the bread that is in the basket.
33They must eat those things by which atonement was made for their ordination and consecration. But no outsider may eat them, because these things are sacred.
34And if any of the meat of ordination or any bread is left until the morning, you are to burn up the remainder. It must not be eaten, because it is sacred.
35This is what you are to do for Aaron and his sons based on all that I have commanded you, taking seven days to ordain them. 36Sacrifice a bull as a sin offering each day for atonement. Purify the altar by making atonement for it, and anoint it to consecrate it.Cross References

Exodus 29:34 Summary
This verse is telling us that the leftover meat and bread from the ordination ceremony were so special that they couldn't be eaten the next day. Instead, they had to be burned, because they were considered sacred, or set apart for God. This teaches us that some things are so special to God that we need to treat them with extra care and respect, like the Sabbath day, as mentioned in Exodus 20:8-11. By treating these sacred things with reverence, we can show our love and respect for God, just like the Israelites were instructed to do in Leviticus 11:44-45.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why were the leftover meat and bread from the ordination ceremony to be burned?
The leftover meat and bread were to be burned because they were considered sacred, having been used in the ordination ceremony, as stated in Exodus 29:34. This act of burning the leftovers signified that these items were dedicated to God and not to be used for ordinary purposes, similar to the instruction in Exodus 12:10 to burn the leftover Passover lamb.
What does the concept of 'sacred' mean in this context?
In this context, 'sacred' refers to something that is set apart and dedicated to God, as seen in Exodus 29:34. This concept is also seen in other parts of the Bible, such as in Leviticus 10:10, where the priests are to distinguish between the sacred and the common.
Is this practice of burning leftovers still relevant today?
While the specific practice of burning leftovers from an ordination ceremony may not be directly applicable today, the principle of treating sacred things with reverence and respect is still relevant, as seen in Malachi 1:6-14, where the people are rebuked for offering defiled sacrifices to God.
How does this verse relate to the broader theme of ordination in Exodus?
This verse is part of the larger context of ordaining Aaron and his sons as priests, as described in Exodus 29:1-35. The burning of the leftovers serves as a reminder of the sacred nature of the ordination ceremony and the importance of treating God's things with reverence, as seen in Exodus 28:1-5, where the priestly garments are described as sacred.
Reflection Questions
- What are some areas in my life where I need to distinguish between the sacred and the common, and how can I apply this principle in a practical way?
- How can I cultivate a sense of reverence and respect for the things of God, and what are some specific ways I can apply this in my daily life?
- What are some ways that I can ensure that I am treating the sacred things of God with the respect and care that they deserve, and what are the consequences of not doing so?
- How does the concept of 'sacred' in this verse relate to my own relationship with God, and what are some ways that I can deepen my understanding of this concept?
Gill's Exposition on Exodus 29:34
And if ought of the flesh of the consecrations, or of the bread, remain unto the morning,.... Being more than the priests could eat: then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire; that it might not be
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Exodus 29:34
And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Exodus 29:34
Thou shalt burn the remainder, according to the law of all peace-offerings, except those which were vows or voluntary offerings, ,17, which these were not: compare .
Trapp's Commentary on Exodus 29:34
Exodus 29:34 And if ought of the flesh of the consecrations, or of the bread, remain unto the morning, then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten, because it [is] holy.Ver. 34. Thou shalt burn the remainder.] The thank offering was not to be kept till the morrow, to teach us to be prompt and present in praising God and applying Christ.
Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 29:34
THE FEAST UPON THE .(31-34) The writer having digressed in Exodus 29:27 from his main subject (the consecration of Aaron and his sons) to the consideration of certain permanent laws which arose out of the occasion, returns to his main subject at this point, and records the directions which he received with respect to the feast that followed, as a matter of course, on the consecration sacrifice. The parts of the victim neither consumed on the altar nor assigned to the officiating priest, were to be boiled at the door of the Tabernacle (Leviticus 8:31), and there consumed by Aaron and his sons, together with the loaf of unleavened bread, the oiled cake, and the wafer, which still remained in the “basket of consecrations” (Leviticus 8:31) mentioned in Exodus 29:3; Exodus 29:23. No “stranger”—i.e., no layman—was to join with them in the feast (Exodus 29:33); and, if they were unable to consume the whole, what remained was to be burnt. (Comp. the injunctions with respect to the paschal lamb, given in Exodus 12:10; Exodus 23:18.) Christian ritualism draws from these injunctions the propriety of an entire consumption of the elements on each occasion of the celebration of the Eucharist.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Exodus 29:34
Verse 34. Burn the remainder with fire] Common, voluntary, and peace-offerings, might be eaten even on the second day; see Leviticus 7:16; Leviticus 19:5-6. But this being a peculiar consecration, in order to qualify a person to offer sacrifices for sin, like that great sacrifice, the paschal lamb, that typified the atonement made by Christ, none of it was to be left till the morning lest putrefaction should commence, which would be utterly improper in a sacrifice that was to make expiation for sin, and bring the soul into a state of holiness and perfection with God. See Clarke on Exodus 12:10.
