* the wave offering.
The wave offering and heave offering are thus distinguished by
the Jewish writers: the former, called {tenoophah,} from
{nooph,} to move, toss, was waved horizontally towards the
four cardinal points, to signify that He to whom it was
consecrated was the Lord of the whole earth; the latter,
called {teroomah,} from room, to be elevated, was lifted
perpendicularly upward and downward, in token of its being
devoted to the God of heaven.
* the ram of the consecration.
{Ail milluim,} literally, "the ram of filling;" so called,
according to some, because at the consecration of the priests,
certain pieces of the sacrifice were put into their hands
(ver. 24;) on which account their consecration itself is
called "filling their hands." (ch. 28:41.) Rabbi Solomon
gives a different reason for the ram being so called, from
{malai,} to be full, complete; because the sacrifice completed
the consecration, and thereupon the priests were fully
invested in their office. Accordingly, the LXX. render it by
[teleiosis,] consummation.
