The Sin Offering
1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: a‘If a person sins unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which ought not to be done, and does any of them,
3 aif the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, then let him offer to the Lord for his sin which he has sinned ba young bull without blemish as a csin offering.
4 He shall bring the bull ato the door of the tabernacle of meeting before the Lord, lay his hand on the bull’s head, and kill the bull before the Lord.

Leviticus
Leviticus
LEVITICUS. So called from its treating of the laws relating to the ritual, the services, and sacrifices of the Jewish religion, the superintendence of which was entrusted to the Levitical priesthood. It is chiefly, however, the duties of the priests, "the sons of Aaron," which this book describes; and its claim to be the work of Moses is established by the following passages:— II Chronicles 30:16; Nehemiah 8:14; Jeremiah 7:22-23; Ezekiel 20:11 Matthew 8:4; Luke 2:22; John 8:5; Romans 10:4; Romans 13:9; II Corinthians 6:16; Galatians 3:12; I Peter 1:16.
