with one male goat
The phrase "with one male goat" refers to the specific animal designated for the sin offering. In Hebrew, the word for "male goat" is "שָׂעִיר" (sa'ir), which often symbolizes strength and virility. The choice of a male goat is significant in the sacrificial system, as it represents a substitutionary atonement, where the animal bears the sin of the people. Historically, goats were common in the region and were accessible to the Israelites, making them a practical choice for offerings. The male goat, in particular, was seen as a valuable sacrifice, reflecting the seriousness of sin and the need for a worthy offering to God.

as a sin offering
The term "sin offering" in Hebrew is "חַטָּאת" (chatta'th), which denotes an offering made to atone for unintentional sins. This offering was a crucial part of the sacrificial system established by God to maintain the holiness of His people. The sin offering underscores the concept of purification and the removal of sin's defilement. It highlights the gravity of sin and the necessity of a blood sacrifice to restore the relationship between God and His people. Theologically, this points forward to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who became the perfect sin offering for humanity.

to make atonement for you
The phrase "to make atonement for you" is derived from the Hebrew word "כָּפַר" (kaphar), meaning to cover or to reconcile. Atonement involves the covering of sin and the restoration of fellowship with God. In the context of the Old Testament, atonement was achieved through the sacrificial system, which foreshadowed the complete atonement accomplished by Christ on the cross. The act of making atonement emphasizes God's mercy and His desire for reconciliation with His people. It serves as a reminder of the cost of sin and the profound love of God, who provides a means for His people to be cleansed and restored to Him.
