Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Jewish culture, goats held significant religious importance, particularly in sacrificial ceremonies. The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) involved the use of two goats: one for sacrifice and the other as the scapegoat, which was sent into the wilderness to symbolically carry away the sins of the people (Leviticus 16). Goats were also part of regular offerings and were considered valuable livestock in agrarian societies.
