Here is my Jewish brother's definition of Leviticus 17:
Leviticus 17:7, "so that they will no longer slaughter their meal
offerings for the hegoats after which, straying from Me, they
follow."
I assume that you are referring to the "hegoats" ? Some
translations use "satyrs". Hebrew is "sh'iyrim" can be translated
as demons Isa. 13:21, they would appear as goats to those who claimed
to see them. [Redak]
The preceding chapter speaks of a he-goat symbolizing a
sensuous animality which gratifies its instincts in complete
unrestraint and therefore belongs in the wilderness, not to
human society,which is based upon the Sanctuary of G-d's moral
law.
