Commentary

And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat,.... His right hand, as the Targum of Jo nathan; See Gill on Lev 1:4 . and kill it; not the prince, but the priest after mentioned, or the butcher, as the same Targum: in the place where they hill the burnt offering before the Lord; in the court on the north side of the altar, see Lev 1:11 , it is a sin offering: an offering for his sin of ignorance, or "sin"; so Christ our offering is said to be, Co2 5:21 .
