Moreouer the Lord spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Speak unto the children of Israel ,
saying ,
If a soul shall sin through (
note :)
That is ,
of negligence or ignorance ,
especially in the ceremonial law :
for otherwise the punishment for a crime is determined according to the transgression , (
Num_15
:22 ).(:
note )
ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD [
concerning things ]
which ought not to be done ,
and shall do against any of them :
*
If (
note :)
Meaning ,
the high priest .(:
note )
the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people ;
then let him bring for his sin ,
which he hath sinned ,
a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD for a sin offering .
*
And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD ;
and shall lay his hand upon the bullock '
s head ,
and (
note :)
By this confessing that he deserved the same punishment which the beast suffered .(:
note )
kill the bullock before the LORD .
*
And the Priest that is anointed shall take of the bullocks blood ,
and bring it into the Tabernacle of the Congregation .
*
And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood ,
and sprinkle of the blood seven times before the LORD ,
before the vail of the (

sanctuary .
*
And the priest shall put [
some ]
of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD ,
which [
is ]
in the (

Which was in the court :
meaning by the tabernacle the sanctuary :
and in the end of this verse it is taken for the court .(:
note )
tabernacle of the congregation ;
and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the burnt offering ,
which [
is at ]
the door of the tabernacle of the congregation .
*
And hee shall take away all the fat of the bullocke for the sinne offring :
to wit ,
the fat that couereth the inwardes ,
and all the fatte that is about the inwardes .
*
He shall take away also the two kidneis ,
and the fat that is vpon them ,
and vpon the flankes ,
and the kall vpon the liuer with the kidneis ,
*
As it was taken away from the bullock of the peace offrings , &
amp ;
the Priest shall burne them vpon the altar of burnt offring .
*
But the skinne of the bullocke ,
and all his flesh ,
with his heade ,
and his legs ,
and his inwardes ,
and his dung shal he beare out .
*
So he shall cary the whole bullocke out of the host vnto a cleane place ,
where the ashes are powred , &
amp ;
shall burne him on ye wood in the fire :
where ye ashes are cast out ,
shal he be burnt .
*
And if the (
note :)
The multitude does not excuse the sin ,
but if all have sinned ,
they must all be punished .(:
note )
whole congregation of Israel sin through ignorance ,
and the thing be hid from the eyes of the assembly ,
and they have done [
somewhat against ]
any of the commandments of the LORD [
concerning things ]
which should not be done ,
and are guilty ;
*
When the sinne which they haue committed shalbe knowen ,
then the Congregation shall offer a yong bullocke for the sinne , &
amp ;
bring him before the Tabernacle of the Congregation ,
*
And the (
note :)
For all the people could not lay on their hands :
therefore it was sufficient that the elders of the people did it in the name of all the congregation .(:
note )
elders of the congregation shall lay their hands upon the head of the bullock before the LORD :
and the bullock shall be killed before the LORD .
*
Then the Priest that is anointed ,
shall bring of the bullockes blood into the Tabernacle of the Congregation ,
*
And the Priest shall dip his finger in the blood ,
and sprinkle it seuen times before the Lord ,
euen before the vaile .
*
Also he shall put some of ye blood vpon the hornes of the altar ,
which is before the Lord ,
that is in the Tabernacle of the Congregation :
then shall he powre all the rest ,
of the blood at ye foote of the altar of burnt offring ,
which is at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation ,
*
And he shall take all his fat from him ,
and burne it vpon the altar .
*
And the Priest shal doe with this bullocke ,
as he did with the bullocke for his sinne :
so shall he do with this :
so the Priest shal make an atonement for them ,
and it shalbe forgiuen them .
*
For he shal carie the bullocke without the hoste ,
and burne him as he burned the first bullock :
for it is an offring for the sinne of the Congregation .
*
When a ruler shal sinne ,
and do through ignorance against any of the commaundementes of the Lorde his God ,
which should not be done ,
and shall offend ,
*
If one shewe vnto him his sinne ,
which he hath committed ,
the shall he bring for his offring an hee goat without blemish ,
*
And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat ,
and kill it (
note :)
That is ,
the priest shall kill it ;
for it was not lawful for any out of that office to kill the beast .(:
note )
in the place where they kill the burnt offering before the LORD :
it [
is ]
a sin offering .
*
Then the Priest shall take of the blood of the sinne offring with his finger ,
and put it vpon the hornes of the burnt offring altar ,
and shall powre the rest of his blood at the foote of the burnt offring altar ,
*
And he shall burn all his fat upon the altar ,
as the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings :
and the priest shall make (
note :)
In which he represented Jesus Christ .(:
note )
an atonement for him as concerning his sin ,
and it shall be forgiven him .
*
Likewise if any of the people of ye lande shall sinne through ignoraunce in doing against any of the commandements of the Lord ,
which should not be done ,
and shall offend ,
*
If one shewe him his sinne which he hath committed ,
then he shall bring for his offring ,
a shee goate without blemish for his sinne which he hath committed ,
*
*
Then the Priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger ,
and put it vpon the hornes of the burnt offring altar , &
amp ;
powre all the rest of the blood thereof at the foote of the altar ,
*
And shall take away all his fat ,
as the fat of the peace offringes is taken away ,
and the Priest shall burne it vpon the altar for a sweete sauour vnto the Lorde ,
and the Priest shall make an atonement for him ,
and it shalbe forgiuen him .
*
And if he bring a lambe for his sinne offring ,
he shall bring a female without blemish ,
*
And he shall lay his (
note :)
Meaning that the punishment of his sin should be laid on the beast ,
or ,
that he had received all things from God ,
and offered this willingly .(:
note )
hand upon the head of the sin offering ,
and slay it for a sin offering in the place where they kill the burnt offering .
*
Then the Priest shall take of the blood of the sinne offring with his finger ,
and put it vpon the hornes of the burnt offring altar ,
and shall powre al the rest of the blood thereof at the foote of the altar .
*
And he shall take away all the fat thereof ,
as the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the peace offerings ;
and the priest shall burn them upon the altar , (
note :)
Or ,
besides the burnt offerings ,
which were daily offered to the Lord .(:
note )
according to the offerings made by fire unto the LORD :
and the priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath committed ,
and it shall be forgiven him .
*
And if a soul sin ,
and hear the voice of swearing ,
and [
is ]
a witness ,
whether he hath seen or (
note :)
By which it is commanded to bear witness to the truth ,
and disclose the iniquity of the ungodly .(:
note )
known [
of it ];
if he do not utter [
it ],
then he shall bear his iniquity .
*
Either if one touche any vncleane thing ,
whether it be a carion of an vncleane beast ,
or a carion of vncleane cattel ,
or a carion of vncleane creeping things ,
and is not ware of it ,
yet he is vncleane ,
and hath offended :
*
Eyther if hee touche any vncleannesse of man (
whatsoeuer vncleannes it be ,
that hee is defiled with )
and is not ware of it ,
and after commeth to the knowledge of it ,
he hath sinned :
*
Or if a soul (
note :)
Or ,
vow rashly without just examination of the circumstances ,
and not knowing what shall be the issue of the same .(:
note )
swear ,
pronouncing with [
his ]
lips to do evil ,
or to do good ,
whatsoever [
it be ]
that a man shall pronounce with an oath ,
and it be hid from him ;
when he knoweth [
of it ],
then he shall be guilty in one of these .
*
And it shall be ,
when he shall be guilty in one of these (
note :)
Which have been mentioned before in this chapter .(:
note ) [
things ],
that he shall confess that he hath sinned in that [
thing ]:
*
Therefore shall he bring his trespasse offring vnto the Lord for his sinne which he hath committed ,
euen a female from ye flocke ,
be it a lambe or a she goat for a sinne offring ,
and the Priest shall make an atonement for him ,
concerning his sinne .
*
But if he be not able to bring a sheepe ,
he shall bring for his trespas which he hath committed ,
two turtle doues ,
or two yong pigeons vnto the Lord ,
one for a sinne offring ,
and the other for a burnt offring .
*
So he shall bring them vnto the Priest ,
who shall offer the sinne offring first ,
and wring the necke of it a sunder ,
but not plucke it cleane off .
*
After he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sinne offring vpon the side of the altar ,
and the rest of the blood shall be shed at the foote of the altar :
for it is a sinne offering .
*
And he shall offer the second [
for ]
a burnt offering ,
according to the manner :
and the priest shall (
note :)
Or ,
declare him to be purged of that sin .(:
note )
make an atonement for him for his sin which he hath sinned ,
and it shall be forgiven him .
*
But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves ,
or two young pigeons ,
then he that sinned shall bring for his offering the tenth part of an (
note :)
Which was about a half gallon .(:
note )
ephah of fine flour for a sin offering ;
he shall put no As in the meat offering , (
Lev_2
:1 ).
oil upon it ,
neither shall he put [
any ]
frankincense thereon :
for it [
is ]
a sin offering .
*
Then shall hee bring it to the Priest ,
and the Priest shall take his handfull of it for the remembrance thereof ,
and burne it vpon the altar with the offrings of the Lorde made by fire :
for it is a sinne offring .
*
So the Priest shal make an atonement for him ,
as touching his sinne that he hath committed in one of these poyntes ,
and it shall bee forgiuen him :
and the remnant shalbe the Priests ,
as the meate offring .
*
And the Lord spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
*
If a soul commit a trespass ,
and sin through ignorance , (
note :)
Concerning the first fruits or tithes ,
due to the priests and Levites .(:
note )
in the holy things of the LORD ;
then he shall bring for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks ,
By the estimation of the priest , (
Lev_27
:12 ).
with thy estimation by shekels of silver ,
after the shekel of the sanctuary ,
for a trespass offering :
*
So hee shall restore that wherein hee hath offended ,
in taking away of the holy thing ,
and shall put the fift part more thereto ,
and giue it vnto the Priest :
so the Priest shal make an atonement for him with the ram of ye trespasse offring ,
and it shalbe forgiuen him .
*
And if a soul sin ,
and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD ;
though he wist [
it ]
not ,
yet is he guilty ,
and shall (
note :)
That is ,
remembers after that he has sinned when his conscience accuses him .(:
note )
bear his iniquity .
*
And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock ,
with thy estimation ,
for a trespass offering ,
unto the priest :
and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his (

Else if his sin against God come of malice ,
he must die ; (
Num_15
:30 ).(:
note )

it ]
not ,
and it shall be forgiven him .
*
This is the trespasse offring for the trespasse committed against the Lord .
*
And the Lord spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
*
If a soul sin ,
and commit a trespass against the LORD ,
and lie unto his neighbour in that which was delivered him to keep ,
or in (

*
Or have found that which was lost ,
and lieth concerning it ,
and sweareth falsely ;
in any of all these that a man doeth , (
note :)
In which he cannot but sin :
or ,
in which a man accustoms to sin by perjury or such like thing .(:
note )
sinning therein :
*
When ,
I say ,
he thus sinneth &
amp ;
trespasseth ,
he shall then restore the robbery that he robbed ,
or the thing taken by violence which hee tooke by force ,
or the thing which was deliuered him to keepe ,
or the lost thing which he founde ,
*
Or for whatsoeuer he hath sworne falsely ,
he shall both restore it in the whole summe ,
and shall adde the fift parte more thereto ,
and giue it vnto him to whome perteyneth ,
the same day that he offreth for trespasse .
*
Also he shall bring for his trespasse vnto the Lorde ,
a ramme without blemish out of the flocke in thy estimation worth two shekels for a trespasse offring vnto the Priest .
*
And the Priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lorde ,
and it shall be forgiuen him ,
whatsoeuer thing he hath done ,
and trespassed therein .
*
Then the Lord spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Command Aaron and his sons ,
saying ,
This [
is ]
the (

the ceremony which ought to be observed in it .(:
note )
law of the burnt offering :
It [

because of the burning upon the altar all night unto the morning ,
and the fire of the altar shall be burning in it .
*
And the priest shall put on his linen garment ,
and his linen breeches shall he put upon (

Upon his secret parts , (

altar .
*
After ,
he shal put off his garments ,
and put on other raiment ,
and cary the ashes foorth without the hoste vnto a cleane place .
*
But the fire vpon the altar shall burne thereon and neuer be put out :
wherefore the Priest shall burne wood on it euery morning ,
and lay the burnt offering in order vpon it ,
and he shall burne thereon the fat of the peace offrings .
*
The fire shall euer burne vpon the altar ,
and neuer go out .
*
Also this is the lawe of the meate offring ,
which Aarons sonnes shall offer in the presence of the Lorde ,
before the altar .
*
He shall euen take thence his handfull of fine flowre of the meate offring and of the oyle , &
amp ;
all the incense which is vpon the meat offring ,
and shall burne it vpon the altar for a sweete sauour ,
as a memoriall therefore vnto the Lorde :
*
But the rest thereof shall Aaron and his sonnes eate :
it shalbe eaten without leauen in the holy place :
in the court of the Tabernacle of the Congregation they shall eate it .
*
It shall not be (

Or ,

I have given it [
unto them for ]
their portion of my offerings made by fire ;

the sin offering ,
and as the trespass offering .
*
All the males among the children of Aaron shall eate of it :
It shalbe a statute for euer in your generations concerning the offrings of the Lord ,
made by fire :
whatsoeuer toucheth them shall be holy .
*
Agayne the Lorde spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
*
This [
is ]
the offering of Aaron and of his sons ,
which they shall offer unto the LORD in the day when he is anointed ;
the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat offering (
note :)
So oft as the high priest shall be elected and anointed .(:
note )
perpetual ,
half of it in the morning ,
and half thereof at night .
*
In the frying panne it shalbe made with oyle :
thou shalt bring it fryed ,
and shalt offer the baken pieces of the meate offering for a sweete sauour vnto the Lorde .
*
And the priest of his sons that is (
note :)
His son that shall succeed him .(:
note )
anointed in his stead shall offer it : [
it is ]
a statute for ever unto the LORD ;
it shall be wholly burnt .
*
For euery meate offring of the Priest shall be burnt altogether ,
it shall not be eaten .
*
Furthermore ,
the Lord spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Speake vnto Aaron ,
and vnto his sonnes ,
and say ,
This is the Lawe of the sinne offering ,
In the place where the burnt offring is killed ,
shall the sinne offring be killed before the Lord ,
for it is most holy .
*
The Priest that offreth this sinne offring ,
shall eate it :
in the holy place shall it be eaten ,
in the court of ye Tabernacle of the Congregation .
*
Whatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be holy :
and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof upon any (

All the males among the Priestes shal eate thereof ,
for it is most holy .

And no sin offering ,
whereof [
any ]
of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile [
withal ]
in the holy [
place ],
shall be eaten :
it shall be burnt in the (

In the place (

And (

the high priest .(:

After he shall take away the two kidneis ,

Then the Priest shall burne them vpon the altar ,
for an offring made by fire vnto the Lorde :
this is a trespasse offring .
*
All the males among the Priestes shall eate thereof ,
it shalbe eaten in the holy place ,
for it is most holy .
*
As the sin offering [
is ],
so [

the trespass offering : [
there is ]
one (

The same ceremonies ,
even though this word trespass signifies less then sin .(:

law for them :

Also the Priest that offereth any mans burnt offring ,

And all the meate offring that is baken in the ouen ,
and that is dressed in the pan ,
and in the frying pan ,
shall be the Priestes that offereth it .

And every meat offering ,
mingled with oil ,

Because it had no oil or liquor .(:

shall all the sons of Aaron have ,

Furthermore ,
this is the lawe of the peace offrings ,
which he shall offer vnto the Lorde .

If he offer it for a (

Peace offerings contain a confession and thanksgiving for a benefit received ,
and also a vow ,

He shall offer also his offring with cakes of leauened bread ,
for his peace offrings ,
to giue thankes .
*
And of all the sacrifice he shall offer one cake for an heaue offering vnto the Lorde ,
and it shalbe the Priestes that sprinckleth the blood of the peace offrings .
*
Also the flesh of his peace offerings ,
for thankesgiuing ,
shalbe eaten the same day that it is offered :
he shall leaue nothing thereof vntill the morning .

But if the sacrifice of his offering [
be ]

or a voluntary offering ,
it shall be eaten the same day that he offereth his sacrifice :
and on the morrow also the remainder of it shall be eaten :
*
But as much of the offered flesh as remaineth vnto the third day ,
shalbe burnt with fire .
*
And if [
any ]
of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings be eaten at all on the third day ,
it shall not be accepted ,
neither shall it be imputed unto him that offereth it :
it shall be an abomination ,
and the soul that eateth of it shall (

And the flesh that toucheth any unclean (

But if any eate of the flesh of the peace offerings that pertaineth to the Lorde ,
hauing his vncleannesse vpon him ,

Moreouer ,
whe any toucheth any vncleane thing ,
as the vncleannesse of man ,
or of an vncleane beast ,
or of any filthie abomination ,
and eate of the flesh of the peace offrings ,
which pertaineth vnto the Lorde ,
euen that person shalbe cut off from his people .
*
Againe ye Lord spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Speake vnto the children of Israel , &

say ,
Ye shall eate no fat of beeues ,
nor of sheepe ,
nor of goates :
*
Yet the fat of the dead beast ,
and the fat of that ,
which is torne with beastes ,
shalbe occupied to any vse ,
but ye shall not eate of it .
*
For whosoeuer eateth the fat of the beast ,
of the which he shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lorde ,
euen the person that eateth ,
shalbe cut off from his people .
*
Neither shall ye eate any blood ,
either of foule ,
or of beast in all your dwellings .
*
Euery person that eateth any blood ,
euen the same person shall be cut off from his people .
*
And the Lord talked with Moses ,
saying ,
*
Speake vnto the children of Israel , &
amp ;
say ,
Hee that offereth his peace offerings vnto the Lorde ,
shall bring his gifte vnto the Lorde of his peace offerings :
*
His own (

hands shall bring the offerings of the LORD made by fire ,
the fat with the breast ,
it shall he bring ,
that the breast may be waved [

Then the Priest shall burne the fatte vpon the Altar ,
and the breast shall be Aarons and his sonnes .
*
And the right shoulder shall ye giue vnto the Priest for an heaue offering ,
of your peace offrings .
*
The same that offreth the blood of ye peace offrings ,
and the fatte ,
among the sonnes of Aaron ,
shall haue the right shoulder for his parte .
*
For the breast shaken to and fro ,
and the shoulder lifted vp ,
haue I taken of the children of Israel ,
euen of their peace offrings ,
and haue giuen them vnto Aaron the Priest and vnto his sonnes by a statute for euer from among the children of Israel .

This [

The which portions the Lorde commanded to giue them in the day that he anointed them from among the children of Israel ,
by a statute for euer in their generations .

This [

the law of the burnt offering ,

Afterwarde the Lorde spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
