The Day of Atonement pictures a great event, to take place after the Second Coming
of Christ, Gods Holiday as a constant reminder of God’s plan of redemption for mankind!

Verse 5—“And he [Aaron, or the high priest] shall take of the congregation
of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering?.…”

Verse 6—The high priest offered a sin offering for himself and his house.

Verses 7 and 8—“And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at
the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats;
the one lot for the Lord, and the other lot for the scapegoat [margin, Hebrew, Azazel].”

the English word scapegoat signifies “one who bears blame or guilt for
But scapegoat is an English word, and is not a translation of the Hebrew word Azazel.

The word scapegoat, and the meaning attached to this English word, is not
a translation of the Hebrew word Azazel, it is not the word inspired originally.

“Azazel is understood to be the name of one of those malignant demons.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azazel

Why was it necessary to be decided by lot like this, the bible does not say .
which one to represent Christ, and which one for Azazel in the meaning.

Now one lot was for the Lord—this goat typified Christ—but the
other lot was not for the Lord, did not typify Christ, but Azazel—Satan!

the goat which God selected—through lot, to represent Christ
—was slain, as Christ, its antitype, was slain.

But the other goat selected by God to represent Azazel was not slain,
but was driven, alive, into an uninhabited wilderness.

It was not a resurrected goat, symbolizing the resurrected Christ,
for it never died. Heaven is neither uninhabited, nor a wilderness.
The risen Christ, now at the right hand of the throne of God in heaven.

The earthly type of God’s throne was the mercy seat in the holy of holies.
After Christ died, He went to the heavenly mercy seat interceding for us,
as our High Priest.

“Then shall he [the high priest] kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people,
and [now the high priest himself typifying the work of the risen Christ] bring his blood
within the vail, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat: And he shall make an atonement
for the holy place”

it was the high priest taking blood within the veil, to the mercy seat, that typified
the risen Christ figuratively taking His blood, once for all, within the veil to the
very throne of God in heaven, there to intercede for us as High Priest

The high priest going within the veil, into the holy of holies, symbolized Christ’s
return to heaven. The work he did while in the holy of holies symbolized Christ’s
work these 1,900 some years interceding for us, presenting His shed blood before
the mercy seat in heaven.

Now, coming back out, symbolizing Christ’s return to Earth,
what did the high priest do?

“And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of
the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat: And Aaron shall lay both
his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the
children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the
head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:

And the goat shall bear upon him [Fenton: shall carry upon itself] all their iniquities
unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.

The Azazel Goat was Not, and is Not Our Sin-Bearer -
but he will bear the Guilt of what he has done, not our sins.

But The real cause—the actual author of those sins—was Satan the devil.
Is it justice for Christ to bear guilt that is not His, while the devil goes off scot-free?

and the high priest returning to place the sins finally upon the head of the live goat
represented the return of Christ, who will place the sins He bore on their author,
the devil, and who will send him away alive into a desolate uninhabited wilderness
—the “bottomless pit,” or abyss, of Revelation 20:3.

at-one-ment , A shadow of the judgment and punishment of Satan the Devil...

The Day of Atonement explains when satan gets locked up for a 1000 years.
I believe Azazel could be one of the origanal names of satan.

Interesting. I am going to have to fact check a lot of what you said.

Makes me wonder about Jesus distinguishing between the sheep and the goats.
