But he shall take its skin, all its flesh, its head, its legs, and its internal organs, including the intestines,

carry it all outside the camp to the ritually clean place where the ashes are poured out, and there he shall burn it on a wood fire.

After that, he shall kill the goat for the sin offering for the people, bring its blood into the Most Holy Place, and sprinkle it on the lid and then in front of the Covenant Box, as he did with the bull's blood.

He shall put both of his hands on the goat's head and confess over it all the evils, sins, and rebellions of the people of Israel, and so transfer them to the goat's head. Then the goat is to be driven off into the desert by someone appointed to do it.

As an offering to take away the sins of the royal family and of the people of Judah and to purify the Temple, they took seven bulls, seven sheep, seven lambs, and seven goats. The king told the priests, who were descendants of Aaron, to offer the animals as sacrifices on the altar.

Finally they took the goats to the king and to the other worshipers, who laid their hands on them.

All those who had returned from exile then brought offerings to be burned as sacrifices to the God of Israel. They offered 12 bulls for all Israel, 96 rams, and 77 lambs; they also offered 12 goats to purify themselves from sin. All these animals were burned as sacrifices to the LORD.

like the Son of Man, who did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life to redeem many people."

Christ was without sin, but for our sake God made him share our sin in order that in union with him we might share the righteousness of God.

For there is one God, and there is one who brings God and human beings together, the man Christ Jesus,

who gave himself to redeem the whole human race. That was the proof at the right time that God wants everyone to be saved,
