The Book of Leviticus Chapters 4-6 (2 of 14)

it. Then the priest took the offering and dipped his
finger in the blood and then splashed it seven times
before the veil that separated the holy place from the
holy of holies. He did this for the sacrifices that
were for himself and for the congregation. The other
sacrifices had no such in ...
