The Priest's Essential Role

Commentators like Ellicott and Gill highlight the specific procedure: the worshiper brings their offering to the priest, not directly to the altar. The priest then acts as the mediator, taking the offering and presenting it at the altar. This underscores the structured and mediated nature of worship in the Old Testament.
