And first we are to enquire what is meant by eating the sins of the people; for the understanding whereof we are to know that in many places of the Scripture, sin is put for the sacrifices, which were offered for sin: So Exod 29. 14 1But the flesh of the Calf, and his skin, and his dung, shalt thou burn with sire without the boast, it is sin, that is, a sin Offering. So Leu. 10. 17. Wherefore have ye not eaten the 2sin, (that is, the sin offerings) in the holy place. And in this sense Christ is said to be made sin for us. 2 Cor. 5. 21. that 3is, an oblation, for our sins, for the satisfying of his fathers justice, and the appeasing of his wrath. In which signification we are here to take it, so that by eating the sins of the people, is meant, the eating of their sacrifices which were offered for their sins.
