Context — The Ram of Ordination
24Moses also presented Aaron’s sons and put some of the blood on their right earlobes, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Then he splattered the blood on all sides of the altar.
25And Moses took the fat—the fat tail, all the fat that was on the entrails, the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with their fat—as well as the right thigh.
26And from the basket of unleavened bread that was before the LORD, he took one cake of unleavened bread, one cake of bread made with oil, and one wafer, and he placed them on the fat portions and on the right thigh.
27He put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and waved them before the LORD as a wave offering. 28Then Moses took these from their hands and burned them on the altar with the burnt offering. This was an ordination offering, a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the LORD.Cross References

Leviticus 8:26 Summary
In this verse, Moses takes special bread and places it on the sacrifice, showing that the priests are giving their best to God. This is like when we give God our best, whether it's our time, talents, or resources, as seen in Matthew 22:37-38. The bread also reminds us to live a life free from sin, just like the Israelites were told to remove all leaven from their homes during the Passover, as noted in Exodus 12:15. By giving our best and living a life of purity, we can be consecrated to God's service, just like the priests.

Gill's Exposition on Leviticus 8:26
And out of the basket of unleavened bread,.... Moses was ordered to take, Leviticus 8:2, that [was] before the Lord; being brought to the tabernacle, where now the Lord had taken up his residence: he
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Leviticus 8:26
And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram.
Ellicott's Commentary on Leviticus 8:26
(26-28) And out of the basket.-The description in these three verses of the rites performed at the sacrifice of consecration is exactly in accordance with the orders given in Exodus 29:23-25. The right shoulder, and one cake of each of the three unleavened kinds, which formed the officiating priests’ share of the sacrifices (see Leviticus 7:12; Leviticus 7:32), and which were ordinarily eaten by them and their families, Moses on this occasion burned upon the altar, after being placed in the hands of Aaron and his sons, and waved before the Lord.
Cambridge Bible on Leviticus 8:26
(iii) The ram of consecration (22–36), cp. Exodus 29:19-26 The last sacrifice is that of the ram of consecration. As some portions are consumed by the offerers (Leviticus 8:31) it resembles the Peace-Offerings, but special rites are added, indicating the character and duties of the priestly office. The blood of the ram is applied to the ear, hand, and foot of Aaron and his sons. The ear attentive to the commands of God, the hand ready to do His will, the foot prepared to walk in His ways are thus signified. The blood is also thrown (as enjoined in Leviticus 3:2) against the altar round about. In Leviticus 8:23-24 the blood is put first on Aaron and afterwards on his sons; cp. Exodus 29:20, where a separate bringing near of the sons is not enjoined.
Whedon's Commentary on Leviticus 8:26
26. Oiled bread — Here are all the elements of the mincha, meat offering, or meal offering, (R.V.,) except the frankincense. Leviticus 2:1.
