The
Scapegoat
(Levi&cus
16:
20-22a)
The Scapegoat
All
year
long
Israels
sins
have
been
pollu&ng
the
sanctuary.
Although
individuals
have
brought
purica&on
oerings
to
cleanse
the
sanctuary
of
their
involuntary
sins,
their
oerings
have
had
no
aect
on
the
ac&ons
of
the
brazen
sinner
who
has
refused
to
repent.
His
or
her
sins
con&nue
to
pollute
the
sanctuary,
seeping
ever-deeper
into
the
inner
recesses
of
the
Holy
of
Holies,
posing
the
very
real
threat
that
God
will
abandon
his
sanctuary,
leaving
the
people
to
fend
for
themselves,
a
na&on
without
God.
Thus,
Lesson
#11
(Levi&cus
16)
introduces
the
annual
Day
of
Atonement,
Yom
Kippur,
when
the
High
Priest
enters
the
Holy
of
Holies,
purifying
it
with
a
sin
oeringthe
blood
of
a
goatand
then
transferring
the
pollu&on
and
the
sins
of
the
people
onto
the
head
of
a
second
scapegoat,
dispatching
it
into
the
wilderness,
bearing
the
all
the
sins
of
all
the
people.
