Yom Kippur
Heb 9:6,7 When everything had been arranged like this, the priests entered regularly into the outer room to carry on their ministry. But only the high priest entered the inner room, and that only once a year, and never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.
To this day Jews celebrate the day of atonement, which they call "Yom Kippur", but in fact do not observe it as required under the Law of Moses as the Jews today have no Levitical priesthood and no tabernacle or temple in which to observe this.
But such was merely a shadow made obsolete by the true and effective sacrifice of the Lord Jesus who atoned for sin. "He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins" 1John 2:2a Furthermore note that under the Law the day of atonement only dealt with sins committed in ignorance. But the New Covenant deals with all sins through the sacrifice of Christ. "By Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses." Acts 13:39
Now on the day of atonement there were two goats. One is sacrificed, which represents Christ's death atoning for sins. The other is the "scapegoat" "Aaron is to lay both hands on the head of the live goat and confess over it all the wickedness and rebellion of the Israelites— all their sins— and put them on the goat’s head. He shall send the goat away into the desert in the care of a man appointed for the task. The goat will carry on itself all their sins to a solitary place; and the man shall release it in the desert." Lev 16:21,22 That goat the Bible calls the "scapegoat" and is where we get the word "scapegoat" today. He represents Christ taking our sins upon himself and taking them away. "We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all ... By oppression and judgment he was taken away. And who can speak of his descendants? For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people he was stricken." Is 53:6,8
