Commentary on Exodus 40:12
Bringing Aaron and his sons 'to the door of the tabernacle' for washing precedes their anointing and consecration (v. 13-15). The public setting ('door,' פֶּתַח, petach) teaches that priestly consecration, though personal, has corporate witness—the community must recognize set-apart leadership. The washing symbolizes cleansing from sin; the location (tabernacle entrance, not private tent) emphasizes transparent qualification. Christ's public baptism (Matthew 3:13-17) demonstrated similar transparent consecration before His public ministry.
