Washing

Exodus 40:12

“And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.”

Exodus 29:4

“And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shalt wash them with water.”

These are the clearest Old Testament verses about ritual washing connected with priestly service.

Anointing

Exodus 40:13–15

“And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.
And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:
And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father…”

Exodus 29:7

“Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him.”

Leviticus 8:10–12
This chapter also describes Moses anointing the tabernacle and Aaron.

Holy garments

Exodus 28:2

“And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.”

Exodus 28:3

“...that they may make Aaron’s garments to consecrate him...”

Exodus 28:4
This verse lists the priestly clothing:
“And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe…”

Exodus 40:13

“And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments…”

Leviticus 8:7–9
This describes Aaron being clothed in the priestly garments.

Garments connected with holiness

Exodus 28:40–43
These verses speak of priestly coats, bonnets, linen breeches, and the sacred nature of those garments.

Exodus 39:27–29
Describes the making of the garments in detail.

A combined passage: washing, clothing, and anointing together

The strongest single set of verses is:

Exodus 40:12–15

wash with water
put on holy garments
anoint
sanctify for priestly service

Also:

Leviticus 8:6–12

washing
clothing
anointing

Ecclesiastes 9:8

“Let thy garments be always white...”

A New Testament spiritual parallel

Not temple-priest clothing in the same sense, but sometimes connected symbolically:

Revelation 19:8

“And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white...”


Romans 13:14

“But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ...”

I love the temple because I can feel The Holy Spirit of God in abundance while I am there. I also love providing the holy and necessary temple ordinances of salvation and exaltation for my kindred dead. The power of temple and the priesthood ordinances performed there are real! I sincerely hope you will come and partake and learn more about it!  Click on the discussion tab above for more info. about sacred the temples of our day
