and the elders of the assembly shall lay their hands on the head of the bullock before Jehovah; and onea shall slaughter the bullock before Jehovah.

JND Translation Notes

a
The expression "one shall slaughter" has interest in respect of the point where self-offering and mediatorial work begins. It was not the priest who slaughtered, unless he were the guilty one (ver. 4), and then it is not as priest. I do not know that it is more precise in vers. 4 and 24.
