Context — Aaron’s First Offerings
2He said to Aaron, “Take for yourself a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering, both without blemish, and present them before the LORD.
3Then speak to the Israelites and say, ‘Take a male goat for a sin offering, a calf and a lamb—both a year old and without blemish—for a burnt offering,
4an ox and a ram for a peace offering to sacrifice before the LORD, and a grain offering mixed with oil. For today the LORD will appear to you.’”
5So they took what Moses had commanded to the front of the Tent of Meeting, and the whole congregation drew near and stood before the LORD. 6And Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the LORD may appear to you.”Cross References

Aaron and his sons are to eat the remainder. It must be eaten without leaven in a holy place; they are to eat it in the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting. It must not be baked with leaven; I have assigned it as their portion of My offerings made by fire. It is most holy, like the sin offering and the guilt offering. Any male among the sons of Aaron may eat it. This is a permanent portion from the offerings made by fire to the LORD for the generations to come. Anything that touches them will become holy.” Then the LORD said to Moses, “This is the offering that Aaron and his sons must present to the LORD on the day he is anointed: a tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening. It shall be prepared with oil on a griddle; you are to bring it well-kneaded and present it as a grain offering broken in pieces, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

Leviticus 9:4 Summary
This verse is talking about the special offerings that the Israelites were going to make to God, including a peace offering and a grain offering mixed with oil. These offerings were a way for the people to show their love and gratitude to God, and to acknowledge His presence and glory in their lives. Just like the Israelites, we can also show our love and gratitude to God by following His commands and offering our lives as a sacrifice to Him, as seen in Romans 12:1-2. By doing so, we can experience God's presence and glory in our own lives, just like the Israelites did on this special day.

The peace offering, also known as the fellowship offering, was a way for the Israelites to express their gratitude and fellowship with God, as seen in Leviticus 7:11-21, and it was a key part of the worship service on this special day, as Moses was instructing the people to follow God's commands in Exodus 20:24.

What does it mean that the Lord will appear to the people in Leviticus 9:4?
When it says that the Lord will appear to the people, it means that God will reveal His presence and glory to them, just as He did on Mount Sinai in Exodus 19:18 and in the Tabernacle in Exodus 40:34-38, and this appearance of God's glory was a significant event in the history of the Israelites.

Gill's Exposition on Leviticus 9:4
Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the Lord,.... An offering being made for the atonement of sin, and the gift of a whole burnt offering accepted by the Lord upon that,
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Leviticus 9:4
And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering; No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Leviticus 9:4
See the fulfilling of this promise, . Heb. hath appeared. He speaks of the thing to come as if it were past, which is frequent in Scripture, to give them the more assurance of the thing.
Trapp's Commentary on Leviticus 9:4
Leviticus 9:4 Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the LORD will appear unto you.Ver. 4. For today the Lord will appear unto you.] And he may not find you empty handed, unprepared.
Ellicott's Commentary on Leviticus 9:4
(4) Also a bullock and a ram.—The elders were thus to bring on behalf of the people, (1) a he-goat for a sin offering; (2) a yearling calf and a yearling sheep for a burnt offering; and (3) an ox and a ram for a peace offering. A meat offering mingled with oil.—The oil was to be added, as, with the exception of the small portion offered to the Lord, the meat offering was the perquisite of the officiating priests who partook of it, together with their share of the victims, and the cakes had to be made palatable for the sacerdotal repast. (See Leviticus 2:1.) For to-day the Lord will appear unto you.—That is, prepare and sanctify yourselves with these sacrifices, for the Lord is to manifest himself in an especial manner to signify his approval of the inauguration of Aaron and his family to the priesthood.
