He is to lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes atonement for one's life.
Leviticus 1:4,17:11
The animals you choose must be year-old males without defect, and you may take them from the sheep or the goats.The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.
Exodus 12:5,13
"God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son." Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram [a] caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son.
Genesis 22:8,13
