What else is Leviticus telling us in chapter 8? In verses 4-6, there is another condensation of liturgical details. Everyone was in an air of expectation or wonderment.
- The people gathered.
- Moses gave an introduction.
- Moses then conducted a ceremony for Aaron and his sons.
What are the principles or format we should continue today?
Is “gathering” a building block for liturgy?
Is commencement of liturgy done by one person, and very brief? What Moses said was theocentric. Should all that we say be theocentric?
Is liturgy realised in action or word?
Is it necessary to anoint leaders? Does anointing use water, and what does “wash … with water” mean?
