聖經經文

意思

一個擔起別人所犯的罪行的人。

來源及應用

在舊約時代，不是任何人都可以進入會幕中的至圣所，只有那些被上帝選中的先知才有這樣的機會。如果先知進入至圣所，他需要進貢兩只山羊，一只作為自己贖罪的供物，另外一只用于代人受罪。代人受過的那只山羊能從死里逃脫，活生生地進貢到上帝跟前。先知將自己的兩只手按在代人受過的山羊的頭上，讓其承擔以色列人的一切罪過。隨后，先知必須將那只承載著他們的過失的山羊放逐到沙漠中。舊約中的替罪羊預表基督降臨，藉著基督的寶血救贖人的罪。 “Scapegoat”現在被賦予了另外一種含義。它不用來比喻人們能為自己的過失贖罪，而是代表一個擔起別人所犯的罪行的人。

例句
