The Solemn Yearly Sacrifice of the Bullock and He-Goat, a Type of Christ, Levit. 16.
OF the two He-Goats it was by Lot, that the one was taken, and the other escaped, &c. The Manner (saith Ainsworth) was thus: They had two Lots, the one had written upon it, [For Jehovah]; and on the other, [For a Scape-Goat]. Now God by these Lots showed which of the two he would have die: figuring clearly unto them, how that Jesus Christ, the lively Anti-type of them was to die by God's Decree, or according to the determinate Counsel of his own Will,1 that we might escape eternal Damnation thereby.
