Episode notes
Day of Atonement
- The Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur, was the only day the High Priest could enter the Holy of Holies.
- This was to present annual sacrifices covering the sins of the priests and the people.
Two Goats
- Two goats were used: one for the Lord and one for Azazel, possibly a goat demon.
- This symbolized sending sins out of Israel's camp, prefiguring Christ as the scapegoat.
Idolatry and Demons
- The Israelites continued sacrificing to other gods, which Yahweh called demons.
- This demonstrates ongoing idolatry despite God living among them and providing atonement.
