Put all of it together, and it's as if brevity, a change in case, a lack of makeup, or a long, swelling sigh can all somehow make atonement seem more authentic—but these days, the illusion doesn't seem to be fooling people too much.

The Gemara questioned whether might refer only to a nazirite who became unclean.

Immediately, the angels conceded that God's plan was correct, and each angel felt moved to love Moses and give him gifts. Even the Angel of Death confided his secret to Moses, and that is how Moses knew what to do when, as reports, Moses told Aaron what to do to make atonement for the people, to stand between the dead and the living, and to check the plague.Babylonian Talmud Shabbat 88b–89a.

But the Gemara concluded that says that the priest must "make atonement" because the nazirite who became unclean sinned twice (both by becoming a nazirite at all and by defiling his nazirite vow). Similarly, Rav taught that a person will have to give account on the judgment day for every good permissible thing that the person might have enjoyed and did not.Jerusalem Talmud Kiddushin 4:12. Similarly, Hillel the Elder taught that washing one's body in the bath-house was a religious duty.

Antheia () was a town in ancient Messenia, mentioned in the Iliad by Homer, who gives it the epithet Βαθυγείμων. Homer says it was located in the high meadows between Pherae and Aipeia, and lists it as one of the towns with which Agamemnon wished to make atonement to Achilles. It was supposed by later writers to be the same as Thuria, though some identified it with Asine. Some modern scholars treat the site as unlocated; others tentatively identify a location at .

Babylonian Talmud Ketubot 67b. Rabbi Eleazar taught that when the Temple stood, a person used to bring a shekel and so make atonement. Now that the Temple no longer stands, if people give to charity, all will be well, and if they do not, heathens will come and take from them forcibly (what they should have given away). And even so, God will reckon to them as if they had given charity, as says, "I will make your exactors righteousness [, tzedakah]."Babylonian Talmud Bava Batra 9a.

On Yom Kippur he alone entered the Holy of Holies, to make atonement for his house and for the people (). He alone could offer the sacrifices for the sins of the priests, or of the people, or of himself (); and only he could officiate at the sacrifices following his own or another priest's consecration (). He also offered a meal-offering every morning and evening for himself and the whole body of the priesthood (, though the wording of the law is not altogether definite). Other information concerning his functions is not given.

Several debates decades after the original would occur at the Oxford Union. After the Falkland crisis a year prior, exactly what the citizens of Britain would go to war for came into question. On 9 February 1983, coincidentally the 50th anniversary of the original debate, another debate was held with the motion, That this House would not fight for Queen and Country," brought to the floor. Beloff, returned to fight the motion: "Those of us who voted for the original motion have perhaps a duty to make atonement and warn against the kind of foolish arrogance to make statements that were factually and morally untrue.

The Pirke De-Rabbi Eliezer told what happened in after Moses asked to behold God's Presence in Moses foretold that he would behold God's Glory and make atonement for the Israelites' iniquities on Yom Kippur. On that day, Moses asked God (in the words of ) "Show me, I pray, Your Glory." God told Moses that Moses was not able to see God's Glory lest he die, as reports God said, "men shall not see Me and live," but for the sake of God's oath to Moses, God agreed to do as Moses asked. God instructed Moses to stand at the entrance of a cave, and God would cause all God's angels to pass before Moses.

This meant that Sparta was also now effectively at war with Persia. However, in order to appease the Achaemenid king somewhat, two Spartans were voluntarily sent to Susa for execution, in atonement for the death of the Persian heralds."Two Spartans of noble birth and great wealth, Sperthias son of Aneristus and Bulis son of Nicolaus, undertook of their own free will that they would make atonement to Xerxes for Darius' heralds who had been done to death at Sparta. Thereupon the Spartans sent these men to Media for execution." in Darius thus put together an ambitious task force under Datis and Artaphernes in 490 BC, which attacked Naxos, before receiving the submission of the other Cycladic Islands.

Just as the ministering angels have no joints, likewise the Israelites stand on their feet. Just as the ministering angels are at peace with each other, so the Israelites are at peace with each other on the Day of Atonement. Just as the ministering angels are innocent of all sin on the Day of Atonement, so are the Israelites innocent of all sin on the Day of Atonement. On that day, God hears their prayers rather than the charges of their accuser, and God makes atonement for all the people, as says, "And he shall make atonement for the holy place."Pirke De-Rabbi Eliezer, chapter 46. Early 9th century, in, e.g., Pirke de Rabbi Eliezer, translated and annotated by Gerald Friedlander, pages 363–64. London, 1916. Reprinted New York: Hermon Press, 1970.

In the seventh reading (, aliyah), if a person could not afford two turtledoves or pigeons, then the person was to bring flour for a sin-offering to the priest, and the priest would take a handful of it and make it smoke on the altar, and thereby make atonement.. Guilt offerings (, asham) were required when a person was unwittingly remiss about any sacred thing.. In such cases, the person had to sacrifice a ram and make restitution plus 20 percent to the priest.. Similarly, guilt offerings were required when a person dealt deceitfully in the matter of a deposit or a pledge, through robbery, by fraud, or by finding something lost and lying about it.. In such cases, the person had to sacrifice a ram and make restitution plus 20 percent to the victim..

For in , God said, "And you shall take the atonement money from the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tent of meeting, that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before the Lord, to make atonement for your souls.'" (Thus God said that at some future time, the money would provide atonement.) Alternatively, Rabbi Joḥanan taught that God saw the Temple. For explained the meaning of the name that Abraham gave to the mountain where Abraham nearly sacrificed Isaac to be, "In the mount where the Lord is seen." (Solomon later built the Temple on that mountain, and God saw the merit of the sacrifices there.) Rabbi Jacob bar Iddi and Rabbi Samuel bar Naḥmani differed on the matter.

During this campaign Knighton records his successful siege of the castle of Sourmussy in Gascony, in which he appears to have evidenced no common skill. In 1362, he was appointed one of the commissioners on the state of Ireland. When, in 1364, King John II of France, to make atonement for the Louis I, Duke of Anjou’s breach of faith, determined to yield himself back to captivity, to die three months alter his Landing at the Savoy Palace, Burghersh was one of the nobles deputed to receive him at Dover and conduct him by Canterbury to Edward‘s presence at Eltham. In 1366, he was one of the commissioners sent to Urban V, who had rashly demanded the payment of the arrears of the tribute granted by King John.

High Priest Offering Incense on the Altar (illustration from Henry Davenport Northrop's 1894 Treasures of the Bible) The Mishnah taught that during the days of the Temple, seven days before Yom Kippur, they would move the High Priest from his house to the cell of the counselors and prepare another priest to take his place in case anything impure happened to him to make him unfit to perform the service. Rabbi Judah said that they prepared another wife for him, in case his wife should die, as says that "he shall make atonement for himself and for his house" and "his house" means "his wife." But they told Rabbi Judah that if they would do so, then there would be no end to the matter, as they would have to prepare a third wife in case the second died, and so on.

A nazirite is called "holy unto the Lord" (Numbers 6:8), and must bring a sin-offering (Numbers 6:11) if breaking the dedication by being near a dead body ("and make atonement for that which he sinned"). This is not a contradiction, because the sin-offering is only if someone "dies suddenly in the nazirites presence, thus defiling the hair that symbolizes their dedication" (Numbers 6:9), when it is made clear by the Lord (Numbers 6:6) that a nazirite cannot be in the presence of the dead thus becoming unclean. The Babylonian Talmud claims this is a contradiction, leading to two divergent views. Samuel and Rabbi Eleazar ha-Kappar, focusing on the sin-offering of the nazirite, regarded nazirites, as well as anyone who fasted when not obligated to or took any vow whatsoever, as a sinner.

A Baraita taught that the priests did the sacrificial service, the Levites sang on the platform while the priests offered the sacrifices, and the Israelites served as emissaries of the entire people when they attended the sacrifices. And another Baraita reported that Rabbi Simeon ben Eleazar taught that priests, Levites, Israelites, and song were all essential for an offering. Rabbi Avin said in the name of Rabbi Eleazar that provided support for this when it says, "And all the congregation prostrated themselves," these being the Israelites; "and the singers sang," these being the Levites; "and the trumpeters sounded," these being the priests; and the conclusion of the verse, "all this continued until the burnt-offering was finished," demonstrated that all were essential to complete the offering. Rabbi Tanhuma said in the name of Rabbi Lazar that one may learn this from "And I have given the Levites," these being the Levites; "to do the service of the children of Israel in the tent of meeting," these being the priests; "and to make atonement for the children of Israel," this being brought about by the singing; "through the children of Israel coming near to the sanctuary," these being the Israelites.
