Azazel

In today’s post, I will not discuss all the events that occurred on the Day of Atonement.  I will return to this topic at a later time. Rather, I discuss the selection of the two goats to be used on the Day of Atonement. This post deals with Azazel, the goat that carried away the sins of the people.

Topics: Leviticus 16, Azazel, Day of Atonement, Scapegoat
