Contextual Overview
1 On the eighth day after the time of appointing, Moses called for Aaron and his sons and for the elders of Israel. 2 He said to Aaron, "Take a bull calf and a male sheep that have nothing wrong with them, and offer them to the Lord . The calf will be a sin offering, and the male sheep will be a whole burnt offering. 3 Tell the people of Israel, ‘Take a male goat for a sin offering and a calf and a lamb for a whole burnt offering; each must be one year old, and it must have nothing wrong with it. 4 Also take a bull and a male sheep for fellowship offerings, along with a grain offering mixed with oil. Offer all these things to the Lord , because the Lord will appear to you today.'" 5 So all the people came to the front of the Meeting Tent, bringing the things Moses had commanded them to bring, and they stood before the Lord . 6 Moses said, "You have done what the Lord commanded, so you will see the Lord 's glory." 7 Then Moses told Aaron, "Go to the altar and offer sin offerings and whole burnt offerings. Do this to remove your sins and the people's sins so you will belong to God. Offer the sacrifices for the people and perform the acts to remove their sins for them so they will belong to the Lord , as the Lord has commanded."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he said unto Aaron,.... In the presence of the people of Israel:
take thee a young calf for a sin [offering]; one not exceeding a year old, as in Leviticus 9:3 but this was not for the sin of making the calf only, to which the Jewish writers restrain it, but for all other sins of his, which it was necessary should be expiated before he offered sacrifices for the sins of others:
and a ram for a burnt offering; being a strong and innocent creature, was a proper emblem of Christ, the Lamb of God, that takes away by his sacrifice the sins of men:
without blemish; this character belongs, as Aben Ezra observes, both to the calf and ram, which were both to be without spot, and so proper types of Christ the Lamb without spot and blemish, free both from original and actual sin:
and offer [them] before the Lord; on the altar of burnt offering, which stood in the court of the tabernacle near where Jehovah was, to whom every sacrifice for sin was to be offered, being committed against him, and whose justice must be satisfied for it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Leviticus 9:1
On the eighth day - i. e., on the first day after the week of consecration.
Leviticus 9:2
A young calf - A bull calf, which might have been what we should call a yearling ox.
Leviticus 9:3
A kid of the goats - A shaggy he-goat. See Leviticus 4:23 note.
Leviticus 9:6
The glory of the Lord - Compare Exodus 16:7.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Leviticus 9:2. Take thee a young calf, &c. — As these sacrifices were for Aaron himself, they are furnished by himself and not by the people, for they were designed to make atonement for his own sin. See Leviticus 4:3. And this is supposed by the Jews to have been intended to make an atonement for his sin in the matter of the golden calf. This is very probable, as no formal atonement for that transgression had yet been made.
