The Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16)
Description
The Day of Atonement in Leviticus 16 reveals profound truths about the holiness of God, the seriousness of sin, and the hope of forgiveness. On this sacred day, the high priest offered sacrifices and sent away the scapegoat, symbolically carrying away the nation’s sins.
This powerful ritual points to Jesus Christ, who fulfilled both roles—dying for our sins and removing them forever. Learn how the Old Testament’s most solemn day prefigures the permanent and perfect atonement Christ accomplished for us on the cross.
