"The first Yom Kippur is spelled out by the Creator. In this chapter, YHWH expands on the idea that it is not only individuals who can become ‘impure’ via transgressions, but entire communities. The Creator explains how, once a year, the priest and the community can atone to YHWH via sacrifice and repentance, and even send a live goat into the wilderness as a way to place ‘iniquities’ onto the animal. We discuss how this ritual could show vestiges of other idolatrous religions’ practices, including the identification of the wilderness with demons."
