1 The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying, 2 "Take Aharon and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and the bull of the sin offering, and the two rams, and the basket of matzah; 3 and assemble all the congregation at the door of the Tent of Meeting." 4 Moshe did as the LORD commanded him; and the congregation was assembled at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 5 Moshe said to the congregation, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded to be done." 6 Moshe brought Aharon and his sons, and washed them with water. 7 He put the coat on him, tied the sash on him, clothed him with the robe, put the efod on him, and he tied the skillfully woven band of the efod on him, and fastened it to him with it. 8 He placed the breastplate on him; and in the breastplate he put the Urim and the Tummim. 9 He set the turban on his head; and on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown; as the LORD commanded Moshe. 10 Moshe took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and sanctified them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Moses did as the Lord commanded him,.... He convened Aaron and his sons, and the heads of the people, at the door of the tabernacle, and came himself, and brought with him the garments, the oil, and sacrifices, even everything necessary for the consecration:

and the assembly was gathered together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation; and this was, according to the Targum of Jonathan, on the twenty third day of the month Adar or February; but it rather seems to be later, some time in the beginning of Nisan or March, and before the passover began, see Numbers 9:1.
