Leviticus 4:22 - Forerunner Commentary

Leviticus 4:22

20 And he shall do ^awith the bull as he did with the bull as a sin offering; thus he shall do with it. ^bSo the priest shall make atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.

21 Then he shall carry the bull outside the camp, and burn it as he burned the first bull. It is a sin offering for the assembly.

22 ‘When a¹ ruler has sinned, and ^adone something unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord his God in anything which should not be done, and is guilty,

23 or ^aif his sin which he has committed¹ comes to his knowledge, he shall bring as his offering a kid of the goats, a male without blemish.

24 And ^ahe shall lay his hand on the head of the goat, and kill it at the place where they kill the burnt offering before the Lord. It is a sin offering.

25 ^aThe priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and pour its blood at the base of the altar of burnt offering.

26 And he shall burn all its fat on the altar, like ^athe fat of the sacrifice of the peace offering. ^bSo the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin, and it shall be forgiven him.

27 ^a‘If¹ anyone of the common people sins unintentionally by doing something against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which ought not to be done, and is guilty,

28 or ^aif his sin which he has committed comes to his knowledge, then he shall bring as his offering a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he has committed.
