Deu 10:6<\/span>.<\/p>\n The priestly garments, wherewith Moses had invested Aaron Lev 8:7-9<\/span>, were put upon Eleazar by way of solemn transference of Aarons office to him; compare 1Ki 19:19<\/span>.<\/P> <\/p>\n Verse 26<\/span>. Strip Aaron of his garments<\/B><\/I>] This was, in effect, depriving him of his office; and putting the clothes on his son Eleazar implied a transfer of that office to him. A transfer of office, from this circumstance of putting the clothes<\/I> of the late possessor on the person intended to succeed him, was called investing<\/I> or investment<\/I>, (clothing<\/I>); as removing a person from an office was termed divesting<\/I> or unclothing<\/I>. Among the Catholics, and in the Church of England, this same method is used in degrading ecclesiastics. Hence such a degradation is termed by the common people stripping a man of his gown<\/I>.<\/P> <\/p>\n Of his garments, <\/B>to wit, of his priestly garments, Exo 28:2<\/span>; Lev 8:7-9<\/span>, in token of his resignation of his office. See the like Isa 22:15<\/span>,19-21<\/span>. <\/P> Put them upon Eleazar, <\/B>by way of admission and inauguration of him to his office. <\/P> <\/p>\n 26. strip Aaron of his garments<\/B>thatis, his pontifical robes, in token of his resignation. (See Isa22:20-25<\/span>). <\/P> put them on his son<\/B>asthe inauguration into his high office. Having been formerly anointedwith the sacred oil, that ceremony was not repeated, or, as somethink, it was done on his return to the camp.<\/P><\/p>\n And strip Aaron of his garments<\/strong>,…. His priestly garments, as the Targum of Jonathan, and so Jarchi:<\/p>\n and put them upon Eleazar his son<\/strong>; thereby declaring him to be high priest in his father’s stead:<\/p>\n and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall die there<\/strong>; the phrase of gathering to his people is here explained of his dying.<\/p>\n (26) And strip Aaron of his garments.<\/strong>Thus the same hands which had invested Aaron with the sacred garments were employed in divesting him of them, and, in both cases, in obedience to the express command of God. The removal of the priestly robes from Aaron may be regarded as typical of the future disannulling of his priesthood when a priest after the order of Melchizedek should arise. The succession of the priesthood, says Dean Stanley (who refers to Ewalds Geschichte, <\/em>5:13), was made through that singular usage, preserved even to the latest days of the Jewish hierarchy, by the transference of the vestments and drapery of the dead High Priest to the living successor. (Lectures on Jewish History, <\/em>1:182.)<\/p>\n 26<\/strong>. <\/strong> Strip Aaron of his garments <\/strong> The high priest was to be disrobed before death, because his robes, the ordained investiture of his successor, (Exo 29:29<\/span>,) would be defiled by contact with his dead body. Num 5:2<\/span>; Lev 10:5<\/span>, notes. <\/p>\n Put them upon Eleazar <\/strong> Eleazar was inducted into office before his father’s death in order that there might be no interruption in the high priesthood.<\/p>\n Num 20:26<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>Strip Aaron, <\/em><\/strong>&c.<\/strong> This implied a solemn divesting Aaron of his office, and appointing Eleazar his successor in dignity and employment. The garments here mentioned were the robes of the high priest’s office; see Isa 22:20-21<\/span>. <\/p>\n unto his people.
