| Leviticus 16:15
| And when he hath killed the buck-goat for the sin of the people, he shall carry in the blood thereof within the veil, as he was commanded to do with the blood of the calf, that he may sprinkle it over-against the oracle,
| Oracle. He probably took this blood at the same time with that of the calf, Hebrews 9:7. (Menochius) --- Though some Rabbins assert, the high priest entered the holy of holies four times on that day. (Drusius) --- Pausanias tells us, that the temples of Dindymenes and Orcus were opened only once a year. (Calmet)
