Leviticus 16:23-28

Conclusion of the Ceremony. The High Priest must leave his robes in a holy place, so as not to communicate their character to the people, who, of course, would not be allowed to enter there (cf. Ezekiel 44:19 *, Isaiah 66:5 *). He must then bathe, as having been in contact with sin (cf. Leviticus 16:26; Leviticus 16:28). Finally, he must offer the burnt offering, the reconciliation having now been made by the sin offering. The sin offering itself is not burnt at the altar neither the bullock nor the goat but carried away and burnt outside the camp or city. The fat, however, is burnt by the priest (cf. Leviticus 4:8) (RS 2, p. 351).
