Goats were commonly used in Jewish sacrificial rituals as prescribed in the Old Testament, symbolizing atonement and purification.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>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.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/5176.htm">trógó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a male goat<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>goats (4).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>a male goat<p>From the base of <a href="/greek/5176.htm">trogo</a>;
