What Is Atonement? – Leviticus E2

BibleProject

NOTE

Significance of blood in ancient rituals

The blood of animals in ancient rituals was used by priests to make atonement for wrongdoings, and it was believed to represent life rather than death. The blood was collected in a basin or bowl, then sprinkled on the altar or inside the holy place, signifying the importance of blood as a symbol of life. This significance of blood as a representation of life is emphasized in Leviticus 17:11 and 17:14, stating that the life of every creature resides in its blood and prohibiting the consumption of blood.
