The Four Steps of Consecration
Commentators explain that this verse outlines four distinct actions for preparing the priests: clothing them (investiture), anointing them with oil (a type of the Holy Spirit), consecrating them (literally 'filling their hands' with sacrifices to offer), and sanctifying them (setting them apart). Each step was a necessary part of their formal appointment by God.
