VERSE: Lv16-06b
RASHIS COVERED: Lv16-06b Lv16-06a Lv16-11a
==================== Lv16-06b ====================
SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
By aligning 4 verses talking about the High-
Priest-Day-Of-Atonement-Ox-Sin-offering (Lv16-06
Lv16-11 Lv16-16 and Lv16-03) we infer that
- the High Priest brings an Ox sin offering
- this Sin offering ATONES on temple sins of impurity
- the atonement is for all priests and Jews

================================= LIST307g =======================================
We align 4 verses discussing the High Priest OX offering.
==================================================================================
Lv16-03 Lv16-06 Lv16-11 Lv16-16
===================== =================== ==================== ===================
Aaron comes with Aaron OFFERS the Aaron OFFERS '
an OX SIN OFFERING the OX*1 the ox '
' He ATONES his house he ATONES his house ATONES on TEMPLE*2
' ' ' From IMPURITIES
' ' he slaughters the Ox '
and RAM UP OFFERING ' ' '
NOTES
-----
*1 The alignment shows that the OX mentioned in Lv16-06 and Lv16-11
is the same Ox spoken about in Lv16-03 (Rashi: Lv16-06a)
*2 The alignment shows that the ATONEMENT mentioned in Lv16-06 and
Lv16-11 is the same ATONEMENT mentioned in Lv16-16. In other
words the OX atones for inadvertent/intentional impurifying
of the Temple*10 (Rashi: Lv16-06b and Lv16-11a)
----------------------------- LONGER FOOTNOTES -----------------------------------
*10 Rashi seems to derive that the Ox atones on BOTH the High Priests
family and on the Priests sins of impurities in the temple from
the repeated use of the phrase HE ATONES ON HIS HOUSE in both
Lv16-06 and Lv16-11.
However a much simpler and elegant way of taking the Rashi is
that Rashi uses the technique of OTHER VERSES---Lv16-16 explicitly
states that the OX and GOAT sin offering atone for
- Impurity-in-Temple sins of
- the whole Jewish people
So this includes sins of
- Priests---------Ox of High Priest
- Jews------------Goat offering of Nation
- High Priest-----Ox of high Priest
Note the novelty in this approach (of deriving this concept from
OTHER VERSES vs REPEATED PHRASES): We would interpret the offering
as atoning on both the High Priests sins as well as ordinary Priests
sins even if the phrase had not been repeated. The derivation
comes from the OTHER VERSE!!!

================ LIST307h =======================
Alignment of several(not all) verses dealing
with PROCEDURE STEPS in various offerings.
=================================================
VERSE OFFERING SUPPORT? CONFESS? SLAUGHTER?
======= ============ ======== ======== ==========
Lv01-04 Up Offering SUPPORT PLEASE*1 SLAUGHTER
Lv01-11 Up *2 ' SLAUGHTER
Lv03-08 Peace SUPPORT ' SLAUGHTER
Lv03-13 Peace SUPPORT ' SLAUGHTER
Lv04-29 Sin SUPPORT ' SLAUGHTER
Lv04-33 Sin SUPPORT ' SLAUGHTER
Lv05-05 Guilt *2 CONFESS *2
Lv16-11 High Priest *2 ATONE*1 SLAUGHTER
NOTES
-----
*1 As can be seen the CONFESSION procedure is
called PLEASE, CONFESS and ATONE*10
It is the procedure between the SUPPORT
and SLAUGHTER procedures.
*2 It is not our job (in this posting) to
fill in the missing cells in this table
But as an example we learn that the GUILT
OFFERING has SLAUGHTER from Lv07-02 Other
missing cells can be filled similarly
----------------- LONGER FOOTNOTES --------------
*10 It is not hard to explain why the various
terms--PLEASE, CONFESS, ATONE--are used.
- In a GUILT offering the person has actually
sinned (eg He refused to testify Lv05-01
or he stole (Nu05-07 = Lv05-23))
- In the HIGH- PRIEST- DAY- OF- ATONEMENT-
OFFERING the ATONEMENT is on possibly
inadvertent entrance into the Temple while
in a state of ritual impurity. Hence the
word ATONE is more appropriate than CONFESS
- In the UP offering there is no SIN per se...
Rather there is an OMISSION of a positive
commandment...therefore the person brings
an UP offering to become pleasing to God
again.
