Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
10:16-17 The goat of the sin offering was the offering for the people (9:3, 15-17; cp. 9:2, 8-11). On this special occasion, its blood was not carried into the Holy Place as required. The remaining portion, after the portions allocated to God had been offered, should have been eaten by the priests (see 6:29). But the goat was entirely burned, even though its blood had not been taken into the sanctuary (10:18; see 6:30).
