17. After having made atonement for the people in the most holy place, what did the high priest next
do?
Answer
"And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and
the altar, he shall bring the live goat: and Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and
confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins,
putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the
wilderness." Verses 20, 21.
NOTE - The offering of the Lord's goat cleansed the sanctuary. By this offering the sins of the
people, transferred there during the year, were, in type, atoned for; but they were not by this offering
finally disposed of, or destroyed. The scapegoat, symbolizing Satan, the great tempter and originator of sin,
was brought to the sanctuary, and upon his head were placed all these sins which Satan had tempted God's
people to commit.
