Moses asked about the goat for the sin offering and learned that it had already been burned. This made him angry with Eleazar and Ithamar. He demanded: Why did you not eat the sin offering in a sacred place? It is very holy! Jehovah gave it to you in order to take away the sin of the community. Since its blood was not brought into the sacred Tent, you should have eaten the sacrifice there, as I commanded. read more.
