Exegesis

The Piel perfect ū-mil-lē {וּמִלֵּא | ū·mil·lē} with the idiom et yā-dô {אֵת־יָדוֹ | ʾet yā·dô} signifies consecration, and the infinitive construct li-lbōš {לִלְבֹּשׁ | li·lĕ·bōš} governs ha-bə-gā-dîm {הַבְּגָדִים | ha·bə·gā·dîm}, designating the priestly vestments.

In contextLeviticus 21:10

The high priest who is chief among his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil has been poured and who has been consecrated to put on the priestly garments, must not let his hair go unkempt nor tear his garments.
