Leviticus 4:20

Context
4:20 He must do with the rest of the bull just as he did with the bull of the sin offering; this is what he must do with it. 1  So the priest will make atonement 2  on their behalf and they will be forgiven. 3 

Leviticus 5:4

Context
5:4 or when a person swears an oath, speaking thoughtlessly 4  with his lips, whether to do evil or to do good, with regard to anything which the individual might speak thoughtlessly in an oath, even if he did not realize it, but he himself has later come to know it and is guilty with regard to one of these oaths 5 

1 sn Cf. Lev 4:11-12 above for the disposition of “the [rest of] the bull.”

2 sn The focus of sin offering “atonement” was purging impurities from the tabernacle (see the note on Lev 1:4).

3 tn Heb “there shall be forgiveness to them” or “it shall be forgiven to them.”

4 tn Heb “to speak thoughtlessly”; cf. NAB “rashly utters an oath.”

5 tn Heb “and is guilty to one from these,” probably referring here to any of “these” things about which one might swear a thoughtless oath (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 45), with the word “oath” supplied in the translation for clarity. Another possibility is that “to one from these” is a dittography from v. 5 (cf. the note on v. 5a), and that v. 4 ends with “and is guilty” like vv. 2 and 3 (J. Milgrom, Leviticus [AB], 1:300).
