The high priest placed both his hands on the head of a goat and confessed all the sins of the nation. Then the goat carrying the sins of the people is sent off into the wilderness. But it is not just a piece of history!   There is in the modern world a quest for scapegoats though with one enormous difference. Whenever there is an accident or a tragedy, there is a search for someone to blame. Often all the modern means of communication join in; accusations, resignations, demands for compensation and the rest. If a guilty person is found, then an orgy of condemnation and vilification. Rarely a sense of, there but for the grace of God go I. Instead of dealing gently with one another's failure because of our own vulnerability to criticism, there is the presumption that we are in a fit condition to judge and to condemn.   The enormous difference? The original scapegoat followed a confession of the sins of the people. There was no blaming of someone else, but an admission of guilt and a quest for the forgiveness of God. The goat wasn't hated, but was a dramatic picture of the carrying away sins. It was the very opposite of a selfrighteous victimisation of someone else.   Ever since 200 A.D., Christians have seen the scapegoat as a picture of Jesus. As it was led out to die in the wilderness bearing the sins of the people, so he was crucified outside Jerusalem for our sins. We are to be both forgiven and forgiving people.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest meliorator of the world is selfish, huckstering trade. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5028]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest meliorator of the world is selfish, huckstering trade.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5028</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I got the ball I just went hard toward the box and on this field it's easier to stay ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39071]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I got the ball I just went hard toward the box and on this field it's easier to stay in front so I just made sure to keep the ball.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39071</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is it a fact -- or have I dreamt it -- that, by means of electricity, the world of matter ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13890]]></link><description><![CDATA[Is it a fact -- or have I dreamt it -- that, by means of electricity, the world of matter has become a great nerve, vibrating thousands of miles in a breathless point of time?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13890</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every book is a children's book if the kid can read! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63411]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every book is a children's book if the kid can read!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63411</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63499]]></link><description><![CDATA[A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am frightened at seeing all the footprints directed towards thy den, and none returning. [Lat., Quia ne vestigia terrent ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15513]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am frightened at seeing all the footprints directed towards thy den, and none returning. [Lat., Quia ne vestigia terrent  Omnia te adversum spectantia, nulla retrosum.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Quick beleevers neede broad shoulders. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49726]]></link><description><![CDATA[Quick beleevers neede broad shoulders.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The market is in a wait-and-see mode.
