one male goat
The phrase "one male goat" refers to the specific animal chosen for the sin offering. In Hebrew, the word for goat is "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" comes from the Hebrew word "chatta'ah," which means sin or sin offering. This type of offering was instituted by God as a means for the Israelites to atone for unintentional sins and to restore their relationship with Him. The sin offering was a crucial part of the sacrificial system, highlighting the holiness of God and the need for purification from sin. In the broader scriptural context, the sin offering points forward to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who, as the Lamb of God, takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). This offering serves as a reminder of God's grace and mercy, providing a way for His people to be reconciled to Him despite their transgressions.
