2 | the goat a sign for satan? | OT general | Morant61 | 15612 | ||
Greetings Kelkat! I think what you are looking for is the tradition of the scape goat. In Lev. 16:20-28, a live goat is used to symbolically carry the sins of Israel away. I have not researched the history of the goat in popular culture, but I would not be surprised to find that this is the root of the view that the goat is somehow connected to Satan. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
