Exegesis
Eligibility is broadened with kol-haba {כָּל־הַבָּ֣א | kol-habbāʾ} ‘everyone who comes’, and the idiom lemale yado {לְמַלֵּ֣א יָד֔וֹ | ləmallēʾ yādô} ‘to fill his hand’ signals priestly installation.
In context — 2 Chronicles 13:9
Is it not so that you drove away the priests of the LORD —the sons of Aaron and the Levites—and made priests for yourselves like the peoples of the lands? Everyone who comes to consecrate his hand with a young bull and seven rams becomes a priest for what are not gods.
