Exegesis

The infinitive le-kohen {לְכַהֵן | lǝ-ḵǎ-hēn} ‘to serve as priest’ denotes vocation, with tachat aviv {תַּחַת אָבִ֑יו | ṭǎ-ḥaṯ ʾa-vîw} ‘under his father’ indicating hereditary succession.

In context — Leviticus 16:32

And the priest who is anointed and ordained to serve in place of his father shall make atonement, and he shall put on the linen garments .
