'Grab the horns' Explanation from Lyle

Class:

Here is the explanation of the grabbing of the horns from Lyle:Keith,

Please share with your class that the four altar horns are where the sacrificial blood is smeared and atonement is symbolically effected. The grasping of the horns came to signal an appeal for asylum. The mere grasping of the horns of the altar does not guarantee ones safety forever.

Hope this helps.

Lyle
