Levítico 16:20 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 16:20

And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy
[place]
That is, the holy of holies, by carrying in the blood of the bullock, and of the goat there, and sprinkling them as before observed:

and the tabernacle of the congregation;
the great court where the people met, and where the altar of burnt offering stood:

and the altar;
the altar of incense in the holy place; and so all the parts of the tabernacle were reconciled and atoned for, even the holy of holies, the holy place, and the court of the people: all the work the day of atonement, we are told ^F23, was done according to the order prescribed, and that if anything was done before another, it was doing nothing: thus, for instance, if the blood of the goat went before (or was sprinkled before) the blood of the bullock, he must return and sprinkle of the blood of the goat after the blood of the bullock; and if before he has finished the puttings (of the blood) within, the blood is poured out, (that is, at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering,) he shall bring other blood, and return and sprinkle anew within, and so in the temple, and at the golden altar, for every atonement is by itself:

he shall bring the live goat;
that which remained alive after the other was slain, as it was to do, according to the lot that fell upon it, ( Leviticus 16:10 ) ; this was brought to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, whither the high priest went, and performed the following rites.

Levítico 16:20 In-Context

18 Então sairá ao altar, que está perante o Senhor, e fará expiação pelo altar; tomará do sangue do novilho, e do sangue do bode, e o porá sobre as pontas do altar ao redor.

19 E do sangue espargirá com o dedo sete vezes sobre o altar, purificando-o e santificando-o das imundícias dos filhos de Israel.

20 Quando Arão houver acabado de fazer expiação pelo lugar santo, pela tenda da revelação, e pelo altar, apresentará o bode vivo;

21 e, pondo as mãos sobre a cabeça do bode vivo, confessará sobre ele todas as iniqüidades dos filhos de Israel, e todas as suas transgressões, sim, todos os seus pecados; e os porá sobre a cabeça do bode, e enviá-lo-á para o deserto, pela mão de um homem designado para isso.

22 Assim aquele bode levará sobre si todas as iniqüidades deles para uma região solitária; e esse homem soltará o bode no deserto.
