Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834]
Both he who led away the goat, and he who burned the parts of the sin-offerings had to purify themselves. They who went out of the camp during a religious solemnity incurred uncleanness; hence, the need of purification.

Lev 16:27

Shall burn in the fire - i. e., consume in the fire, not burn sacrificially. See Lev 1:9.
