Ibn Ezra on Leviticus 16:6/אבן עזרא על ויקרא ט״ז:ו׳
אוהקריב אהרן את פר החטאת. אל פתח אהל מועד כמשפט:
1AND AARON SHALL PRESENT THE BULLOCK OF THE SIN-OFFERING, WHICH IS FOR HIMSELF. To the opening of the tent of meeting as is the law.27
בוטעם וכפר בעדו. כי בו יכפר בעדו ובעד ביתו אחר שישחטנו ויש אומרים כי העמדתו היא כפרה:
2[AND MAKE ATONEMENT FOR HIMSELF.] This means that with it he will make atonement for himself and for his house after he slaughters it.28 There are those who say that presenting the bullock29. See Sifra and Rashi. is the atonement.30
