The scapegoat is brought to a place of emptiness. Sometimes in the most humble places is where true greatness is to be found.

The Gemara brings as a prooftext a verse from Ezekiel. Ezekiel teaches us the lesson that we must be humble and honest and accept the judgement of God.

The rise of those who love God is as certain as the rise of the morning sun.

We discuss the law of an animal that becomes unfit for the Temple, is this permanent, or can it be fixed. The prophets reassure us though, that people, even if they stray, can always come back to God.

Rava discusses the permissibility of slaughtering an animal for a person who is ill on Yom Kippur and requires the meat. However, in Daniel we find that maybe meat is not so necessary for health?

One must first open his heart before he can begin serving God.

We discuss the flock of the High Priest, which reminds us of a special prayer from the High holiday liturgy. Only the context in Ezekiel is a bit different.

We read of the halachic dilemma of the bald Nazirite. The word for bald reminds us of a beautiful speech given by the prophet Isaiah.

The High Priest wears white clothing, which is a symbol of purity. We learn from Ecclesiastes that purity means to act on the outside consistently with the values we hold on the inside.

The clear blue sky inspires us to be in awe of what is greater than us.
