Leviticus 16: This chapter talks about how the priest who is anointed and ordained to succeed his father is to make the atonement: He puts on the sacred linen garments;He purges the Holy of Holies by making atonement; He purges the Tent of Meeting and the Altar by making atonement; He makes atonement for the priests and all the congregation. "This is a perpetual ordinance for you: Once a year atonement is to be made for all the sins of the People of Israel.” And Aaron did it, just as God commanded Moses." This atonement process was carried over to the NT - Jesus Christ was the atonement lamb that carries all the sins of propel and was sacrificed.
Leviticus 17: This chapter discuses in depth the rules of Holy Living: Sacrifices and Blood. Most importantly, it says that they must no longer offer their sacrifices to goat-demons—a kind of religious orgy; and blood. God has provided the blood for His people to make atonement for their lives on the Altar; it is the blood, the life, that makes atonement." And that's exactly the reason why Christ died for our sins by shedding blood on the cross. This blood brought us new life in Christ, made atonement for all our past sins. We are a new creation in Christ. Amen!
