26 Heb “offering it, the sons of Aaron.” The verb is a Hiphil infinitive absolute, which is used here in place of the finite verb as either a jussive ( §113.cc, “let the sons of Aaron offer”) or more likely an injunctive in light of the verbs that follow ( 2: §123.v, “the sons of Aaron shall/must offer”).
