| Lev 5:1 | “If anyone sins.” Leviticus 5:1-13 continues the rules given in chapter 4 about the sin offering. It would have been less confusing for the reader if Leviticus 5:1 had not been a new chapter but instead had been numbered as part of Leviticus 4. That would have made Leviticus chapter 4 have 48 verses instead of 35, but then all of chapter 4 would have been about the sin offering and then Leviticus 5 would start a new subject and be about the trespass offering. As it is, the first part of Leviticus 5 continues the information about the sin offering, and a new subject, the trespass offering, starts in the middle of chapter 5 (Lev. 5:14). (top) |

| Lev 5:6 | “his offering for his guilt.” The Hebrew word asham (#0817) in this context refers to the penalty for the guilt the person incurred due to their sin, so it is translated as “offering for guilt.” (top) |

| Lev 5:15 | “unfaithfully, yes, unfaithfully.” God uses the figure of speech polyptoton for emphasis (see commentary on Gen. 2:16). To sin ignorantly is still to be unfaithful and trespass against God. [See figure of speech “polyptoton.”] (top) |
