וְנָשָׂ֨א הַשָּׂעִ֥יר עָלָ֛יו אֶת־כָּל־עֲוֺנֹתָ֖ם אֶל־אֶ֣רֶץ גְּזֵרָ֑ה וְשִׁלַּ֥ח אֶת־הַשָּׂעִ֖יר בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃
Y aquel macho cabrío llevará sobre sí todas las iniquidades de ellos á tierra inhabitada: y dejará ir el macho cabrío por el desierto.
Chesed LeAvraham
There are sins for which repentance suspends judgment, but suffering brings atonement. Therefore, when the scapegoat "bears all their iniquities to a desolate land" (Leviticus 16:22), it is as if the sinner declares, "Exact payment from me through such-and-such suffering." They accept this with joy, understanding it as the force of judgment purifying them for their wrongdoing, under the rulings of the Heavenly Court.
