and one kid for _a sin-offering_ (to make atonement—Num. xxviii. 30), and two lambs for a peace-offering (Lev. xxiii. 19). 7th. _At the Feast of Trumpets_, the first of the _seventh_ month— One young bullock, With flour and oil. One ram, Seven lambs, for a burnt-offering for a sweet savour unto the Lord, and one kid for a sin-offering “to make atonement for you” (Num. xxix. 2–5). 8th. _On the annual Day of Atonement_, the tenth of the seventh month: _One young bullock_ for a sin-offering, and _a ram_ for a burnt-offering for the high priest and his house (Lev. xvi. 6), and _two kids of the goats_ from the congregation for a sin-offering (one for the annual sin-offering, and one for the scape-goat) (Lev. xvi. 5). Also— One bullock, With meat offering of flour and oil, One ram, and Seven lambs, for a _burnt-offering_ (Num. xxix. 8). And one kid for a _sin-offering_ of atonement (Num. xxix. 11). This was a day of great solemnity—“It shall be a holy convocation unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls” (Lev. xxiii. 27), &c, “Ye shall do no work; . . . it is a _day to make atonement for you before the Lord your God_” (Lev. xxiii. 28); and whoever among the congregation did not afflict his soul, or whoever did any work therein, was to be cut off from among his people (Lev. xxiii. 29, 30). “It shall be . . . a sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day at even, from even to even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath” (Lev. xxiii. 32). The high priest was not to enter within the veil to the inner tabernacle, except on this day, “that he die not,” and then only with the blood of the sin-offerings for himself and the congregation, peculiar to this day. Before doing so he laid aside his ornamental garments and put on a linen dress (Lev. xvi. 2–4). He took in his hands a censer of burning coals from the altar of burnt offerings and put on it a handful of incense, that the cloud of the incense might cover the mercy seat, whereon the Lord appeared in the cloud, “that he die not” (Lev. xvi. 12, 13). He then took the blood of the sin-offerings, both for the priest and people, within the veil, and sprinkled it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward, and before the mercy seat seven times (Lev. xvi. 15, 16), to make an atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins (Lev. xvi. 16). This is the only sacrifice described in the Law, which corresponds with the words in Hebrews xiii. 11:—“The bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the sanctuary for sin, are burned without the camp.” No other blood was annually brought into the sanctuary (or inner temple) by the high priest on behalf of the people, and sprinkled on and before the mercy seat; and the flesh of these, as well as of some other offerings, was burned without the camp.
