CHAPTER V - ANOTHER TYPE OF THE ATONEMENT SACRIFICES Leviticus IX
(1) How does the typical picture of Leviticus 9th chapter correspond with that of the 16th chapter? Heb. 2:10; Col. 1:24, par. 1-3
(2) If, as we have already seen, there is no intrinsic merit in the sacrifices of the Church, why are we called to be sharers with Him in His sacrifice?
(3) In what sense was our sinless Lord made perfect through sufferings? Heb. 2:10, 17, 18; See THE ATONEMENT BETWEEN GOD AND MAN, Pages 107, 128

(6) How long has the "burnt offering" of Jesus been burning and what class have been witnesses to this? Lev. 9:12-14; par. 7
(7) In this picture of the Atonement Day, given in Lev. 9, why is there no mention of the "scape-goat"? Is it because here the consecration of the Priest is represented, and because the "Great Company," represented by the "scape-goat," is excluded from membership in the "body" of the self-sacrificing Priest?
