Commentary for Leviticus 8:14

וַיַּגֵּ֕שׁ אֵ֖ת פַּ֣ר הַֽחַטָּ֑את וַיִּסְמֹ֨ךְ אַהֲרֹ֤ן וּבָנָיו֙ אֶת־יְדֵיהֶ֔ם עַל־רֹ֖אשׁ פַּ֥ר הַֽחַטָּֽאת׃

And the bullock of the sin-offering was brought; and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock of the sin-offering.

Chizkuni

ויגש את פר החטאת, “He led forward the bull for the sin offering;” now, when the Torah reports details, this bull is referred to as “the bull of the sin offering,” whereas previously in Exodus 29,10 this animal was simply referred to as: הפר, “the bull.”
