bring his sons, and clothe them with coats
on Exodus 40:14-15
The sons are clothed and anointed as their father was, and the anointing is called an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations. Hebrews 7:23-24 takes up the same office and says the priests were many in number because death did not suffer them to continue. Two of the sons anointed in this verse die offering strange fire at Leviticus 10:1-2.
