The First scapeEoat.

The word "seapegoat'' originated In
an ancient Hebrew custom practicsd
at the feast Of the Passover. Placing
q young goat upon the altar, the priests
would pray over it, asking that all the
sins Of the people be visited upon the
goat. Then, after each member OF the
tribe had transferred his guilt to the
victim by laying on his hands, the an
imal was turned loose in the forests to
be devoured by the wild beasts.
