1 * Lev 5:1 (#9.558): For one who has evidence to testify in court “ ‘If anyone sins, in that he sh'ma ·hear obey· the voice of adjuration, he being a witness, whether he has seen or known, if he does not report it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
2 “ ‘Or if anyone touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean animal, or the carcass of unclean livestock, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and it is hidden from him, and he is unclean, then he shall be guilty.
3 “ ‘Or if he touches the uncleanness of man, whatever his uncleanness is with which he is unclean, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty.
4 “ ‘Or if anyone swears rashly with his lips to do evil, or to do good, whatever it is that a man might utter rashly with an oath, and it is hidden from him; when he knows of it, then he shall be guilty of one of these. 5 It shall be, when he is guilty of one of these, he shall yadah ·extend hands in confession· of that in which he has sinned: 6 and he shall bring his trespass offering to Adonai for his sin which he has sinned, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin.
7 † Lev 5:7-11 (Lev 5:6-7, 5:1-13) (#2b.115): To offer a sacrifice according to the person’s ability, their means “ ‘If he can’t afford a lamb, then he shall bring his trespass offering for that in which he has sinned, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, to Adonai ; one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering. 8 ‡ Lev 5:8 (#2b.116): Not to sever the head nor to decapitate a bird brought as a sin offering He shall bring them to the priest, who shall first offer the one which is for the sin offering, and wring off its head from its neck, but shall not sever it completely. 9 He shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering. 10 He shall offer the second for a burnt offering, according to the judgement; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin which he has sinned, and he shall be forgiven.
(7) 11 “ ‘But if he can’t afford two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he shall bring his offering for that in which he has sinned, one tenth of an ephah [an omer; 2.3 q; 2.2 L] of fine flour for a sin offering. § Lev 5:11 (Lev 5:11-13) (#2b.117): T. Not to put olive oil on the flour grain offering that is made for sin / R. Not to put oil on the meal offerings of wrongdoers He shall put no oil on it, * Lev 5:11 (Lev 5:11-13) (#2b.118): T. Not to put frankincense on the grain offering that is made for sin / R. Not to put frankincense on the meal offerings of wrongdoers and he shall not put any frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering. 12 He shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take his handful of it as the memorial portion, and burn it on the altar, on the offerings of Adonai made by fire. It is a sin offering. 13 The priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin that he has sinned in any of these things, and he will be forgiven; and the rest shall be the priest’s, as the meal offering.’ ”
14 Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying, 15 “If anyone commits a trespass, and sins unwittingly, in the holy things of Adonai ; then he shall bring his trespass offering to Adonai , a ram without defect from the flock, according to your estimation in silver by shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is 0.4oz; 11.34 g), for a trespass offering. 16 † Lev 5:16 (Lev 5:14-16) (#8.491): For he who cheats (by not offering the full amount of tithe or first fruits) in things dedicated to Adonai, he is to offer a guilt offering and add a fifth onto the value and restore it He shall make restitution for that which he has done wrong in the holy thing, and shall add a fifth part to it, and give it to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and he will be forgiven.
17 ‡ Lev 5:17-18 (Lev 5:15-19) (#1.6): T. For a person to bring a conditional-guilt offering, if he is in doubt as to whether he has committed a sin or unintentional sin for which a person is to bring a sin offering or if he has not done such a sin / R. If a person is not sure if they have committed a sin requiring a sin sacrifice or if they have not committed such sin, then they should bring a sin offering to make sure they are guiltless “If anyone sins against any the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai concerning things which should not be done, though he didn’t know it, yet he is guilty, and shall bear his iniquity. 18 He shall bring a ram without defect from of the flock, according to your estimation, for a trespass offering, to the priest; and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning the thing in which he sinned and didn’t know it, and he will be forgiven. 19 It is a trespass offering. He is certainly guilty before Adonai .”
