1 The Lord spoke to Moses aftercch. 10:1, 2 the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before the Lord and died, 2 and the Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron your brother not tod[Ex. 30:10; Heb. 9:7, 12, 24, 25; 10:19-22] come at any time into the Holy Place inside the veil, before the mercy seat that is on the ark, so that he may not die. ForeEx. 25:22; 40:34, 35; [1 Kgs. 8:10-12] I will appear in the cloud over the mercy seat. 3 But in this way Aaron shall come into the Holy Place:fch. 4:3 with a bull from the herd for a sin offering andgch. 1:10; 8:18 a ram for a burnt offering. 4 He shall put onhch. 6:10; 8:7; Ezek. 44:17, 18; See Ex. 28:39-43 the holy linen coat and shall have the linen undergarment on his body, and he shall tie the linen sash around his waist, and wear the linen turban; these are the holy garments.ich. 8:6, 7; Ex. 30:20 He shall bathe his body in water and then put them on. 5 And he shall take fromjch. 4:14; Num. 29:11; 2 Chr. 29:21; Ezra 6:17 the congregation of the people of Israel two male goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
6 Aaron shallkEzek. 45:22 offer the bull as a sin offering for himself and shalllver. 17, 24; ch. 9:7; Heb. 7:27, 28; 9:7 make atonement for himself and for his house. 7 Then he shall take the two goats and set them before the Lord at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 8 And Aaron shall cast lots over the two goats, one lot for the Lord and the other lot formver. 26 Azazel. 9 And Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for the Lord and use it as a sin offering, 10 but the goat on which the lot fell form[See ver. 8 above] Azazel shall be presented alive before the Lord to make atonement over it, that it may be sent away into the wilderness tom[See ver. 8 above] Azazel.
11 Aaron shall presentk[See ver. 6 above] the bull as a sin offering for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house. He shall kill the bull as a sin offering for himself. 12 And he shall takench. 10:1; Num. 16:46; Rev. 8:3-5 a censer full of coals of fire from the altar before the Lord, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and he shall bring it inside the veil 13 oEx. 30:1, 7, 8 and put the incense on the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of the incense may coverpEx. 25:21 the mercy seat that is over the testimony, so that he does not die. 14 AndqHeb. 9:13, 25; 10:4; See ch. 4:5, 6 he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it with his finger on the front of the mercy seat on the east side, and in front of the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.

And so he shall do for the tent of meeting, which dwells with them in the midst of their uncleannesses. 17 u[Luke 1:10, 21] No one may be in the tent of meeting from the time he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place until he comes out and has made atonement for himself and for his house and for all the assembly of Israel. 18 Then he shall go out to the altar that isvch. 1:5; 4:24 before the Lord andwver. 16; ch. 4:7, 18; Ex. 30:6, 10 make atonement for it, and shall take some of the blood of the bull and some of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar all around. 19 And he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it and consecrate it from the uncleannesses of the people of Israel.
20 And when he has made an end ofxver. 16, 18; Ezek. 43:20; 45:20 atoning for the Holy Place and the tent of meeting and the altar, he shall present the live goat. 21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over it all the iniquities of the people of Israel, and all their transgressions, all their sins. And he shally[Isa. 53:6; 2 Cor. 5:21] put them on the head of the goat and send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness. 22 The goat shallz[Isa. 53:11, 12; John 1:29; Heb. 9:28; 1 Pet. 2:24] bear all their iniquities on itself to a remote area, anda[ch. 14:7] he shall let the goat go free in the wilderness.
23 Then Aaron shall come into the tent of meeting andbSee ch. 6:11 shall take off the linen garments that he put on when he went into the Holy Place and shall leave them there. 24 And he shall bathe his body in water in a holy place and put on his garments and come out andcver. 3, 5 offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people and make atonement for himself and for the people. 25 Anddch. 4:8-10; Ex. 29:13 the fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar. 26 And he who lets the goat go toever. 8, 10 Azazel shall wash his clothes andf[ch. 15:5; 17:15] bathe his body in water, and afterward he may come into the camp. 27 gch. 4:11, 12, 21; 6:30; Heb. 13:11, 12 And the bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried outside the camp.
