- Leviticus 16:8
After Aaron casts lots for the two goats, one for the LORD and the other for the scapegoat,
Commentary on Leviticus 16:82 voices
Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats - The Jews inform us that there were two lots made either of wood, stone, or any kind of metal. On one was written לשם Lashshem, for the Name, i. e., יהוה Jehovah, which the Jews will neither write nor pronounce: on the other was written לעזאזל Laazazel, for the Scape-Goat: then they put the two lots into a vessel which was called קלפי kalpey, the goats standing with their faces towards the west.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
For the Lord - For the Lord's use by way of sacrifice. Both this and the other goat typified Christ; this in his death and passion for us; that in his resurrection for our deliverance.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
- Leviticus 16:10
But the goat chosen by lot as the scapegoat shall be presented alive before the LORD to make atonement by sending it into the wilderness as the scapegoat.
Commentary on Leviticus 16:102 voices
To be the scape-goat - עזאזל azazel, from עז az, a goat, and אזל azal, to dismiss; the dismissed or sent away goat, to distinguish it from the goat that was to be offered in sacrifice. Most ancient nations had vicarious sacrifices, to which they transferred by certain rites and ceremonies the guilt of the community at large, in the same manner in which the scapegoat was used by the Jews.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
But the goat on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
- Leviticus 16:26
The man who released the goat as the scapegoat must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water; afterward he may reenter the camp.
Commentary on Leviticus 16:262 voices
And he that let go the goat for the scapegoat,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
He that let go the goat - shall wash, etc. - Not only the person who led him away, but the priest who consecrated him, was reputed unclean, because the goat himself was unclean, being considered as bearing the sins of the whole congregation. On this account both the priest and the person who led him to the wilderness were obliged to wash their clothes and bathe themselves, before they could come into the camp.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
