vaYikra (Leviticus) 6:1
1st Aliya
HaShem called to Moshe, saying:
Command Aharon and his sons, saying:
Previously HaShem spoke through Moshe
primarily to the Children of Yisra'el as to how and type of offerings they were
to present as a sacrifice, now HaShem speaks to Aharon and his sons and teaches
them the additional guidelines that relate to their part as the Kohanim.

vaYikra (Leviticus) 6:12
2nd Aliya
HaShem spoke to Moshe, saying:
HaShem instructs Moshe in the Kohanim and
the Kohen Gadol for the priestly meal-offerings. The meal-offerings will
be offered on three different occasions. Each Kohen must offer it once in
their lifetime as in the first time he performs a Temple service; the Kohen
Gadol must make the offering when he takes office and every day thereafter.

vaYikra (Leviticus) 7:11
3rd Aliya
This is the laws of the feast
peace-offering that one will offer to HaShem:
An individual that survived a
life-threatening crisis, they are to bring a thanksgiving-offering to express
their gratitude to HaShem; and a public recognition praise-offering to HaShem,
Who saved them from the crisis of the circumstance in life.

vaYikra (Leviticus) 8:1
4th Aliya
HaShem spoke to Moshe, saying:
HaShem instructs Moshe to encourage Aharon
and his sons to serve HaShem in the role as the priestly men for the Children of
Yisra'el. After all it was Moshe who felt unworthy to serve HaShem in his role
as the leader and mediator between G-d and His children.

vaYikra (Leviticus) 8:14
5th Aliya
Moshe brought forward the sin-offering bull; Aharon and his sons
leaned their hands upon the head of the sin-offering bull.
Although Moshe is not mentioned until
the blood service, he performed the slaughter, according to the instruction of
HaShem, as well. During the seven days of dedication from the
twenty-third of Adar until Rosh Chodesh Nissan, Moshe served as Kohen Gadol and
performed the entire service.

vaYikra (Leviticus) 8:22
6th Aliya
Moshe brought near the second ram,
the inauguration ram, and Aharon and his sons leaned their hands on the head of
the ram.
This particular ram was very special. This
ram was a peace-offering that would effect Aharon and his sons for the rest of
their lives. Its service completed the process for the Kohanim dedication and
consecrated service as their new role to HaShem and the people of Yisra'el.

vaYikra (Leviticus) 8:30
7th Aliya
Moshe took from the oil of
anointment and some of the blood that was on the Altar, and he sprinkled it upon
Aharon and his vestments, and upon his sons and upon the vestments of his sons
who were with him; thus he sanctified Aharon and his vestments, and his sons,
and the vestments of his sons with him.
Moshe was to take the blood only of the
inauguration ram by wiping off some of blood that had been thrown upon the
alter.
