L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 16:1-34

THE GREAT DAY OF ATONEMENT (vv. 1-34) This is a chapter of central importance in the book of Leviticus. It forms a basis for, and is explained in, the epistle to the Hebrews. Aaron's two sons had died for offering “strange fire to the Lord” (Leviticus 10:1-2). We are reminded of this in verse 1 of chapter 16 in order to be impressed with the seriousness of any approach into the holy presence of God. The priests, and even the high priest were forbidden to come at all times into the holiest of... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Leviticus 16:1-34

THE GREAT DAY OF ATONEMENT When was the law of this chapter revealed to Moses (Leviticus 16:1 )? This has led some to think that the chapter is misplaced and that it should follow chapter 10, an idea strengthened by the fact of its cutting into the middle of these laws concerning the clean and the unclean. What prohibition is laid upon Aaron, and with what penalty (Leviticus 16:2 )? Is there a suggestion here that the disobedience of Nadab and Abihu was aggravated by their entering into... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 16:18

Doth not this return of the high priest from within the vail to the altar, sweetly shadow out the coming forth of the LORD JESUS, by the influences of the HOLY GHOST, to bless and meet his church and people in the way of ordinances, and the several means of grace by his gospel? And may we not consider it also, as a striking resemblance of his second coming without sin unto salvation, when he will come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe? 2 Thessalonians... read more

Let him pray for himself. Hebrew, "he shall expiate or purify it," the altar of incense. Josephus says he also sprinkled with blood the great altar of holocausts, ver. 20. (Antiquities iii. 10.) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 16:15-34

15-34 Here are typified the two great gospel privileges, of the remission of sin, and access to God, both of which we owe to our Lord Jesus. See the expiation of guilt. Christ is both the Maker and the Matter of the atonement; for he is the Priest, the High Priest, that makes reconciliation for the sins of the people. And as Christ is the High Priest, so he is the Sacrifice with which atonement is made; for he is all in all in our reconciliation to God. Thus he was figured by the two goats. The... read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Leviticus 16:1-33

Lev_16:1 Lev_22:33 . The opening words of chapter 16 carry us back to the early verses of Leviticus 10.0 where the sin of Nadab and Abihu is recorded. Certain consequences flowing from that sin are mentioned in the rest of the 10th chapter, but now we find that it furnished the occasion for the ritual of the annual day of atonement to be revealed. Verse Lev_16:29 of our chapter shows that it was the procedure to be observed on that day, and how it fitted into the succession of feasts that... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Leviticus 16:15-28

The offerings for the People v. 15. Then shall he kill the goat of the sin-offering that is for the people, the slaying taking place, of course, outside in the court, and bring his blood within the veil, into the Most Holy Place, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy-seat and before the mercy-seat; v. 16. and he shall make an atonement for the Holy Place, the Sanctuary itself being in need of cleansing, because of the uncleanness of... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Leviticus 16:1-19

Leviticus THE DAY OF ATONEMENT Lev_16:1 - Lev_16:19 . The Talmudical treatise on the ritual of the day of atonement is entitled ‘Yoma,’ the day, which sufficiently expresses its importance in the series of sacrificial observances. It was the confession of the incompleteness of them all, a ceremonial proclamation that ceremonies do not avail to take away sin; and it was also a declaration that the true end of worship is not reached till the worshipper has free access to the holy place of... read more
