R’ Moshe Stern of Debrecin zt”l (Be’er Moshe) would say “'ועל כל עם הקהל יכפר' - These words seem to be superfluous. The posuk could have read “on all the people (עם) he shall bring atonement”? The word 'הַקָהָל'alludes to the concept of ‘Hakhel’ (Devarim 31:12), when Klal Yisroel gathered together. The Torah is emphasizing the importance of unity among the Jewish people. When 'העם' - the people - are 'הקהל' - united and together - the Kohen is able to beseech Hashem to forgive all our transgressions.”
A Wise Man would say: “Fame can take interesting men and thrust mediocrity upon them.”
