What does Leviticus 4:24 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Leviticus 4:24
And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the
goat
His right hand, as the Targum of Jonathan; (See Gill on
Leviticus
1:4)
and kill it;
not the prince, but the priest after mentioned, or the butcher,
as the same Targum:
in the place where they hill the burnt offering before the
Lord;
in the court on the north side of the altar, see ( Leviticus
1:11 ) ( 6:25 ) :
it is a sin offering:
an offering for his sin of ignorance, or "sin"; so Christ our
offering is said to be, ( 2
Corinthians 5:21 ) .
