Leviticus 16:7

Jewish writers have dwelt very largely on explaining the method the high priest observed in this ceremony. But I would rather confine my views of it, to what the HOLY GHOST hath been pleased to communicate to the church. The presentation of the two goats before the LORD is striking. The one which was to be slain, and the other that was to escape; both significantly set forth the different state respecting sin to be expiated and the sinner to be pardoned. And was not JESUS represented in both? Did not the slain goat, typify JESUS slain for our sins? Did not the scape goat, represent his carrying our sins away into the land of everlasting forgetfulness? Jeremiah 50:20.
