“Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:”
He shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and take its blood behind the curtain and do with it as he did with the bull's blood: he shall sprinkle it on the atonement cover and in front of it. After the personal atonement, Aaron leaves the Most Holy Place, slaughters the Lord's lot goat for the community, and returns behind the veil with the goat's blood. The goat's blood is applied identically to the bull's blood: on the front of the mercy seat and sevenfold before it. The community's atonement through the goat's blood is as intensive as the priest's personal atonement through the bull's blood. Both the priest and the community receive the most intensive blood application available in the covenant's worship system.
