Leviticus 4:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Leviticus 4:6

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.

5 Then the anointed priest shall ^atake some of the bull’s blood and bring it to the tabernacle of meeting.

6 The priest shall dip his finger in the blood and sprinkle some of the blood seven times before the Lord, in front of the ^aveil of the sanctuary.

7 And the priest shall ^aput some of the blood on the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the Lord, which is in the tabernacle of meeting; and he shall pour ^bthe remaining blood of the bull at the base of the altar of the burnt offering, which is at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

8 He shall take from it all the fat of the bull as the sin offering. The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat which is on the entrails,

9 the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove,

10 ^aas it was taken from the bull of the sacrifice of the peace offering; and the priest shall burn them on the altar of the burnt offering.

11 ^aBut the bull’s hide and all its flesh, with its head and legs, its entrails and offal—

12 the whole bull he shall carry outside the camp to a clean place, ^awhere the ashes are poured out, and ^bburn it on wood with fire; where the ashes are poured out it shall be burned.

13 ‘Now ^aif the whole congregation of Israel sins unintentionally, ^band the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they have done something against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which should not be done, and are guilty;

14 when the sin which they have committed becomes known, then the assembly shall offer a young bull for the sin, and bring it before the tabernacle of meeting.

15 And the elders of the congregation ^ashall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the Lord. Then the bull shall be killed before the Lord.
