“The Lord called to Moses and spoke to him from the the Tent of Meeting. He said, ‘Speak to the Israelites and say to them: “When any of your brings an offering to the Lord, bring as your offering an animal from either the herd or the flock. If the offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to offer a male without defect. He must present it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting so that it will be acceptable to the Lord. he is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.’ “
