Leviticus 16
16:2
And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at
a
all times into the holy [place] within the vail before the mercy seat, which
[is] upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the
mercy seat.
(
a) The high priest entered into the holiest of
holies just once a year in the month of September.
16:8
And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the
other lot for the
b scapegoat.
(
b) In Hebrew it is called Azazel, which some say
is a mountain near Sinai, where this goat was sent. Rather it is called the
scapegoat because it was not offered but sent into the desert, as in (
Leviticus
16:11).
16:12
And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar
before the LORD, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring
[it] within the
c vail:
c The holiest of holies.
16:14 And he shall take of
the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle [it] with his finger upon the mercy seat
d
eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his
finger seven times.
(
d) That is, on the side which was toward the
people: for the head of the sanctuary stood westward.
16:16 And he shall make an
atonement for the holy [place], because of the uncleanness of the children of
Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so shall he
do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that
e
remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
(
e) Placed among them who are unclean.
16:18 And he shall go out
unto the
f altar that [is] before the
LORD, and make an atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock,
and of the blood of the goat, and put [it] upon the horns of the altar round
about.
(
f) Upon which the sweet incense and perfume was
offered.
16:21
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
g
upon the head of the goat, and shall send [him] away by the hand of a fit man
into the wilderness:
(
g) In this goat is a true figure of Jesus
Christ, who bears the sins of the people, (
53:9).
16:24
And he shall wash his flesh with water in
h
the holy place, and put on his garments, and come forth, and offer his burnt
offering, and the burnt offering of the people, and make an atonement for
himself, and for the people.
(
h) In the court where the laver was, (
Exodus
30:28).
16:29
And [this] shall be a statute for ever unto you: [that] in the
i
seventh month, on the tenth [day] of the month, ye shall
k
afflict your souls, and do no work at all, [whether it be] one of your own
country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:
(
i) Which was Tisri, part September and part
October.
(
k) Meaning, by abstinence and fasting, (
Numbers
29:7).
16:31 It [shall be] a
l
sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for
ever.
(
l) Or a rest which you shall keep most
diligently.
16:32 And the priest,
m
whom he shall anoint, and whom he shall consecrate to minister in the priest's
office in his father's stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the
linen clothes, [even] the holy garments:
(
m) Whom the priest shall anoint by God's
commandment to succeed in his father's place.
