Lev. 16:3,6• 3Thus shall Aaron come into the sanctuary, with a young bullock for a sin-offering, and a ram for a burnt-offering.
 6And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house. (Lev. 16:3,6)
• The bullock, though it has a general aim in common with the first goat, is also expressly distinct and has marked differences. On the face of the chapter there was but one bullock, though there were two goats. As it was the largest sort of offering, so here it has a higher connection. The bullock was offered only for the priestly house. There was no complementary bullock to be driven away with their sins laid and confessed on its head, like the second goat which followed up the first, after a notable interval. The bullock and the first goat were slain as nearly about the same time as possible, the bullock first (ver. 11), the goat afterward (ver. 15). (“Leviticus 16:11-19, The Incense and the Bullock, Part 1” by W. Kelly)
• The blood of the bullock was for the priestly family, as that of the goat was for the people. Is there anything in the New Testament to help here? Much. Take one scripture—and a familiar one—in the Gospel of John (11:49-52). The occasion came through an uncomely mouth; but it was God's giving. Caiaphas spoke wickedly, yet God prophesied through him as of old through Balaam. It is not that his heart who uttered the prophecy was in the truth. But if the unscrupulous high priest here prophesied that it was expedient for one man to die for the people, it is clearly the Spirit of God Who comments that He died not for that nation only, but that also He should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. There we have the death of our Lord for two distinct objects. One cannot avoid perceiving that the children of God are a higher object than “that nation.” (“Leviticus 16:11-19, The Incense and the Bullock, Part 1” by W. Kelly)
