The Day of Atonement

16 Two of Aaron’s sons died while offering incense to the Lord.[a] After that time, the Lord spoke to Moses. The Lord said, “Talk to your brother Aaron. Tell him that he cannot go behind the curtain into the Most Holy Place anytime he wants to. The mercy-cover is in the room behind that curtain on top of the Holy Box, and I appear in a cloud over that mercy-cover. If Aaron goes into that room, he will die!

“Before Aaron enters the Most Holy Place, he will offer a bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.
