1. AFTER THE death of Aaron's two sons, when they drew near before the Lord [offered false fire] and died, [Lev. 10:1, 2.]
2. The Lord said to Moses, Tell Aaron your brother he must not come at all times into the Holy of Holies within the veil before the mercy seat upon the ark, lest he die; for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat. [Heb. 9:7-15, 25-28.]
3. But Aaron shall come into the holy enclosure in this way: with a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.
4. He shall put on the holy linen undergarment, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his body, and be girded with the linen girdle or sash, and with the linen turban or miter shall he be attired; these are the holy garments; he shall bathe his body in water and then put them on.
5. He shall take [at the expense] of the congregation of the Israelites two male goats for a sin offering and one ram for a burnt offering.
6. And Aaron shall present the bull as the sin offering for himself and make atonement for himself and for his house [the other priests].
7. He shall take the two goats and present them before the Lord at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
8. Aaron shall cast lots on the two goats–one lot for the Lord, the other lot for Azazel or removal.
9. And Aaron shall bring the goat on which the Lord's lot fell and offer him as a sin offering.
10. But the goat on which the lot fell for Azazel or removal shall be presented alive before the Lord to make atonement over him, that he may be let go into the wilderness for Azazel (for dismissal).
