one male goat
The phrase "one male goat" refers to a specific animal chosen for the sin offering. In Hebrew, the word for goat is "שָׂעִיר" (sa'ir), which often denotes a hairy or shaggy goat. The male goat was a common sacrificial animal in ancient Israelite worship, symbolizing strength and vitality. Historically, goats were abundant in the region and were used for various purposes, including milk, meat, and sacrificial offerings. The choice of a male goat for the sin offering underscores the importance of offering something valuable and significant to God, reflecting the seriousness of sin and the need for atonement.

for a sin offering
The term "sin offering" in Hebrew is "חַטָּאת" (chatta'ath), which signifies an offering made to atone for sin. The sin offering was a crucial part of the sacrificial system established by God for the Israelites, as detailed in Leviticus. It served as a means for the people to seek forgiveness and purification from their sins. Theologically, the sin offering points to the need for reconciliation with God and prefigures the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who is described in the New Testament as the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). The sin offering highlights the gravity of sin and the necessity of a substitute to bear the penalty on behalf of the sinner, a concept fulfilled in the sacrificial death of Christ.
