Leviticus 5:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Leviticus 5:5

3 Or if he touches ^ahuman uncleanness—whatever uncleanness with which a man may be defiled, and he is unaware of it—when he realizes it, then he shall be guilty.

4 ‘Or if a person¹ swears, speaking thoughtlessly with his lips ^ato do evil or ^bto do good, whatever it is that a man may pronounce by an oath, and he is unaware of it—when he realizes it, then he shall be guilty in any of these matters.

5 ‘And it shall be, when he is guilty in any of these matters, that he shall ^aconfess that he has sinned in that thing;

6 and he shall bring his trespass offering to the Lord for his sin which he has committed, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats as a sin offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin.

7 ^a‘If he is not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring to the Lord, for his trespass which he has committed, two ^bturtledoves or two young pigeons: one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering.
