Contextual Overview
1 And this is the thing that you shall do to them to hallow them, to serve me in the priest's office: take one young bull and two rams without blemish, 2 and unleavened bread, and unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil: of fine wheat flour you shall make them. 3 And you shall put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket, with the bull and the two rams. 4 And Aaron and his sons you shall bring to the door of the tent of meeting, and shall wash them with water. 5 And you shall take the garments, and put on Aaron the coat, and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and gird him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod; 6 and you shall set the turban on his head, and put the holy crown on the turban. 7 Then you shall take the anointing oil, and pour it on his head, and anoint him. 8 And you shall bring his sons, and put coats on them. 9 And you shall gird them with girdles and bind head-tires on them: and they shall have the priesthood by a perpetual statute: and you shall consecrate Aaron and his sons. 10 And you shall bring the bull before the tent of meeting: and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the bull.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And thou shalt slay the ram,.... As he was ordered to slay the bullock, acting in this as a priest, as in that:
and thou shall take his blood, and sprinkle it round about upon the altar; the blood being received into a basin, it was not to be put upon the altar with the finger, as the blood of the bullock, but was to be sprinkled probably with a bunch of hyssop, round about upon the altar, on the top and sides: as the deity of Christ is the altar which sanctifies every gift, this may signify that his blood has its virtue and efficacy from that, to make atonement for the sins of men, and to cleanse them from them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The consecration of the priests. See the notes to Lev. 8–9.
Exodus 29:4
Door of the tabernacle - Entrance of the tent. See Leviticus 8:3.

The “waving” was the more solemn process of the two: it was a movement several times repeated, while “heaving” was simply a “lifting up” once.
