These sins happened because the Israelites were unclean and because they committed rebellious acts. He will do the same for the Tent of Meeting that is among an unclean people.

When he finishes making peace with Jehovah at the holy place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he will bring the living goat forward. Aaron will place both hands on its head.

He will burn the fat of the offering for sin on the altar. The man who released the goat to Azazel must wash his clothes and his body. Then he may return to the camp. The bull and the goat used for the sin offering, whose blood was brought into the Most Holy Place to take away sin, will be carried outside the camp and burned.

These regulations are to be observed for a long lasting time to come. High Priest, properly ordained and consecrated to succeed his father, is to perform the ritual of purification. He must dress in priestly garments and perform the ritual to purify the Most Holy Place, the rest of the Tent of Jehovah's presence, the altar, the priests, and all the people of the community.
