Once a year, on Atonement Day, the high priest ‘ laid both his hands upon the head of the live goat and confessed over it all the errors of the sons of Israel, and he put them upon the head of the goat and the goat carried upon itself all their errors into a desert land. ’
Jesaja ennustas, et tuleb Messias, kes etendab samasugust rolli ning kannab ära inimeste haigused, valud ja paljud patud, avades sellega tee igavesse ellu.
