Leviticus 9:7
Compare all
5 So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood1 before the Lord.  
6 Then Moses said, “This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do, and the glory of the Lord will appear to you.”
7 And Moses said to Aaron, “Go to the altar, aoffer your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people. bOffer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as the Lord commanded.”  
8 Aaron therefore went to the altar and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.
9 Then the sons of Aaron brought the blood to him. And he dipped his finger in the blood, put it on the horns of the altar, and poured the blood at the base of the altar.
10 aBut the fat, the kidneys, and the fatty lobe from the liver of the sin offering he burned on the altar, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

Leviticus 9:7

Make an atonement for thyself - This showed the imperfection of the Levitical law; the high priest was obliged to make an expiation for his own sins before he could make one for the sins of the people. See the use made of this by the apostle, Hebrews 5:3; Hebrews 7:27; Hebrews 9:7.
