Leviticus 4:23 - Forerunner Commentary

Leviticus 4:23

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.
