Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
his hand: or, as the Greek has it, "his hands", Menachem gives reason why it is written hand, to signify the right hand, because that was lifted up higher than the left. The lifting up of the hand was a gesture used in speaking, and signifying any weighty thing, Isaiah 49:22, and particularly in swearing, Genesis 14:22, praying, Psalms 28:2, and blessing, either of God, Psalms 134:2, or of men, as in this place. Paul, speaking of prayer, uses the phrase, "lifting up holy hands;" as also David: "Let the lifting up of my hands be as the evening sacrifice." Genesis 14:18-20, Numbers 6:23-27, Deuteronomy 10:8, Deuteronomy 21:5, 1 Kings 8:55, 1 Chronicles 23:13, 2 Chronicles 6:3, Psalms 72:17, Mark 10:16, Luke 24:50, Acts 3:26, 2 Corinthians 13:14, Hebrews 7:6, Hebrews 7:7, 1 Peter 3:9
Reciprocal: Genesis 27:4 - that my Exodus 10:25 - sacrifices Exodus 39:43 - blessed them 2 Samuel 6:18 - he blessed Luke 2:34 - blessed
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Aaron lifted up his hand towards the people, and blessed them,.... After he had offered the above sacrifices both for himself and them: the manner of the priests lifting up their hands when they blessed is thus described; in the provinces the priests lift up their hands to their shoulders, and in the sanctuary above their heads, excepting the high priest, who did not lift up his hands above the plate of gold: but R. Judah says, the high priest lift up his hands above the plate, as it is said Leviticus 9:22 f; the modern Jews describe it thus g, they lift up their hands to their shoulders, and they lift up the right hand somewhat higher than the left; then they stretch out their hands, and part their fingers, and frame them so as to make five airs; between two fingers and two fingers one air, and between the forefinger and the thumb, and between the two thumbs; they spread out their hands so, that the middle (or palm) of the hand may be towards the earth, and the back part of it towards heaven: Aaron lift his hands upwards, signifying from whence he implored the blessing, and towards the people on whom he desired it might descend; in this was a type of Christ, who, after he had offered himself a sacrifice for the sins of his people, when he was risen from the dead and about to ascend to heaven, blessed his disciples, Luke 24:50 in Christ the saints are blessed with all spiritual blessings; by him they are procured for them, through his blood, sacrifice, and satisfaction; and he ever lives to make intercession for the application of them to them, see Ephesians 1:3
and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings; from the altar with joy, as the Targum of Jonathan; being glad he had done his service with acceptance; he is said to "come down", there being a rise or ascent to the altar, which, as Aben Ezra observes, was three cubits high, and therefore it is with propriety said he came down; which he did as soon as he had made an end of offering all the sacrifices.
f Misn. Sotah, c. 7. sect. 6. g Schulchan Aruch, par. 1. Orach Chayim, c. 128. sect. 12.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Aaron having completed the offerings, before he came down from the stage surrounding the altar on which the priests used to stand to officiate (see Exodus 27:8), turned toward the people, and blessed them; probably using the form which became the established one for the priests Numbers 6:24-26, and which is still maintained in the synagogues.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Leviticus 9:22. And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them — On lifting up the hands in prayer, see Exodus 9:29. The form of the blessing we have in Numbers 6:23, c.: "The LORD bless thee and keep thee! The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee! The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace!" See the notes on these passages. Numbers 6:23.
And came down from offering of the sin-offering, &c. — A sin-offering, a burnt-offering, a meat-offering, and peace-offerings, were made to God that his glory might appear to the whole congregation. This was the end of all sacrifice and religious service not to confer any obligation on God, but to make an atonement for sin, and to engage him to dwell among and influence his worshippers.
