This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
In like manner with the blood (tōi haimati homoiōs). Instrumental case of haima (blood). But the use of the article does not necessarily refer to the blood mentioned in Heb 9:19. In Exo 40:9 Moses sprinkled the tabernacle with oil. It had not been erected at the time of Exo 24:5. Josephus (Ant. III. 8, 6) gives a tradition that blood was used also at this dedication. Blood was used annually in the cleansing rites on the day of atonement.
