This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Lev_16:29 And [this] shall be a statute for ever unto you: [that] in the seventh month, on the tenth [day] of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, [whether it be] one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:
Ver. 29. Ye shall afflict your souls.] With voluntary sorrows for your sins, - as David did, {Psa_35:13} and Daniel, {Dan_10:3; Dan_10:12} - and so dispose yourselves to obtain pardon and reconciliation. The Lord’s supper is with us a day of atonement; at which time both the scape goat was let go, and affliction of soul was called for. This passover must be eaten with sour herbs.
