Commentaire de citation sur Le Lévitique 9:9

That is to say, when a person is fat, he is quick to commit sins. Then they offered the kidneys, and it is known that the essential advice in the person comes from the kidneys. The person commits sins through the advice of the kidneys. Afterwards, one offers the red meat. This is the blood of the person, which leads the person to sins.⁶Bahya, Leviticus, 9:9.

הן היום הקריבו את חטאתם ואת עולתם, the reference is to the burnt offering and sin offering of Aaron and his sons concerning which the instructions had been issued in 9,2. Aaron’s sons had assisted him in the transfer of the blood from the place where the slaughtering took place to the altar. This too, has been mentioned in 9,9. This is why Aaron remonstrated with Moses. asking why he was angry at his sons seeing that both he and his sons had offered the mandatory offerings of their consecration rites. Seeing that while engaged in such a holy pursuit fate had dealt him such a blow, how could he be expected to eat, i.e. enjoy, other sacred meats of a permanent character, not part of his inaugural rites. His enjoyment of this day had already been spoiled! The thought is echoed in Gittin 36 עלובה כלה שזינתה בקרב החופה, “a bride who committed adultery while still next to her wedding canopy has indeed been humbled.”
