וְהִקְרִ֨יב אַהֲרֹ֜ן אֶת־פַּ֤ר הַֽחַטָּאת֙ אֲשֶׁר־ל֔וֹ וְכִפֶּ֥ר בַּֽעֲד֖וֹ וּבְעַ֣ד בֵּית֑וֹ וְשָׁחַ֛ט אֶת־פַּ֥ר הַֽחַטָּ֖את אֲשֶׁר־לֽוֹ׃
Y hará llegar Aarón el becerro que era suyo para expiación, y hará la reconciliación por sí y por su casa, y degollará en expiación el becerro que es suyo.
Ein Yaakov (Glick Edition)
YOMA (Fol. 2) Mishnah: Seven days before the Day of Atonement, the High-priest was removed from his house to the Palhedrin (counsellors') chamber, and another High-priest was appointed to substitute him in case he should meet with such an accident [as would incapacitate him for the service of that day]. R. Juda says: "Another wife was also appointed for him lest his own wife should meanwhile die, whereas it is said (Lev. 17, 11) And he shall make atonement for himself and for his house; his house, alludes to his wife." "If this be so," the sages remarked, "then there will be no end to the matter [the other wife may also die]."
Sifra
2) "and one ram for a burnt-offering": Rebbi said: The "one ram" mentioned here is the same as that mentioned in Bamidbar (Bamidbar 29:9). R. Elazar b. R. Shimon says: They are two rams, one mentioned here, and one in Bamidbar. (Vayikra 16:6) "And Aaron shall present the bullock of the sin-offering which is his.": He shall not bring it from community (funds). I might think that he does not bring it from the community because it does not atone for the community, but that he may bring it from his fellow Cohanim, whom it does atone for. It is, therefore, written again "which is his" (Vayikra 16:11). I might think he should not bring it ab initio, but if he did, it is valid. It is, therefore, written again (Vayikra 16:11) "which is his." (Vayikra 16:6) "and he shall make atonement for himself and for his household. This is verbal atonement. But perhaps (it is speaking of) atonement through (the sprinkling of) the blood. (This cannot be, for) it "atonement" is written here, and it is written in respect to the (sent-away) he-goat. Just as the "atonement" there is verbal confession, so the "atonement" of the bullock is verbal.
Vayikra Rabbah
Another matter, “if the anointed priest shall sin” – the anointed priest atones and requires atonement. Rabbi Ḥiyya taught: Since the anointed priest atones and the congregation achieves atonement, it is preferable for the one who atones to precede the one achieving atonement, as it is taught: “And atone for himself and for his household” (Leviticus 16:6), “his household” is his wife.20The High Priest first atones for himself and his wife, then for the priests, and then he is able to atone for the rest of the congregation.
Another matter, “if the anointed priest shall sin” – does an anointed priest sin? Rabbi Levi said: Pathetic is the province where the doctor has gout, the lookout has one eye, and the advocate prosecutes in capital cases.
“So that he brings guilt on [le’ashmat] the people,” it is due to the fire [le’esh], the people die [met].21When the High Priest sins, his sin is like a fire that consumes the nation and causes death. This is analogous to a bear keeper who would eat the bear’s provisions. The king said: ‘Since he eats the bear’s provisions, let the bear eat him.’ So too, the Holy One blessed be He said: ‘Since he is deriving benefit from consecrations let him be consumed by fire.’ Rabbi Aivu said: There was an incident involving a certain ritual slaughterer in Tzippori who would feed Jews [meat from] unslaughtered animals and mauled animals. One time, on the day before Yom Kippur, he ate, drank, became intoxicated, ascended to the rooftop, fell, and died. The dogs began licking his blood. They came and asked Rabbi Ḥanina: ‘Is it permitted to move him from before them?’22It was Yom Kippur, so moving a corpse is prohibited due to muktze. He said to them: ‘It is written: “You shall be holy people to Me; you shall not eat flesh of a mauled animal in the field; you shall cast it to the dog” (Exodus 22:30). This is one who robbed the dogs and fed Jews unslaughtered animals and mauled animals. Leave them, they are eating from what is coming to them.’
"He shall bring the bull to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting before the Lord, and he shall lay his hand on the head of the bull and slaughter the bull before the Lord” (Leviticus 4:4).
“He shall bring the bull to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting” (Leviticus 4:4). Rabbi Yitzḥak said: This is analogous to the friend of a king who honored him with a gift and fine praise. The king said: ‘Place it at the entrance to the palace. Anyone who exits or enters will see it.’ So too, “he shall bring the bull to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.”
