If so, the flesh too [should be fit]? - Scripture saith, 'to make atonement': I have given it for atonement, but not for any other purpose.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Only in respect of atonement does Scripture intimate that the application of the blood on any part of the altar (since 'altar' is not further localised) is efficacious. But the fitness of the flesh is governed by its own peculiar laws.');"><sup>3</sup></span>
