In this Text Talk episode, we unpack Leviticus 16 and the Day of Atonement, focusing on the two goats: one sacrificed for sin, the other—the scapegoat—sent into the wilderness “for Azazel” (Lev 16:8-10).

Who is Azazel?

• “The goat that departs” (hence “scapegoat”)?

• A remote wilderness spot?

• A demonic entity, as many scholars argue?

We explore the theological impact: God’s total victory over sin, evil’s reality, and echoes of Christ’s ultimate atonement.

Short, deep, and provocative—perfect for your Bible study!
