And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat
His right hand, as the Targum of Jonathan; (See Gill on Leviticus 1:4)
and kill it ;
not the prince, but the priest after mentioned, or the butcher, as the same Targum:
in the place where they hill the burnt offering before the Lord ;
in the court on the north side of the altar, see (Leviticus 1:11) (6:25) :
it is a sin offering :
an offering for his sin of ignorance, or "sin"; so Christ our offering is said to be, (2 Corinthians 5:21) .
"And David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David begat more sons and daughters." — 1 Chronicles 14:3 (ASV)
