Leviticus 4:26

Context
4:26 Then the priest 1  must offer all of its fat up in smoke on the altar like the fat of the peace offering sacrifice. So the priest will make atonement 2  on his behalf for 3  his sin and he will be forgiven. 4 

Leviticus 5:10

Context
5:10 The second bird 5  he must make a burnt offering according to the standard regulation. 6  So the priest will make atonement 7  on behalf of this person for 8  his sin which he has committed, and he will be forgiven. 9 

Leviticus 19:22

Context
19:22 and the priest is to make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before the Lord for his sin that he has committed, 10  and he will be forgiven 11  of his sin 12  that he has committed.

1 tn Heb “Then he”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity. Based on the parallel statements in 4:10 and 4:31, it is the priest who performs this action rather than the person who brought the offering.

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

3 tn Heb “from.” In this phrase the preposition מִן (min) may be referring to the reason or cause (“on account of, because of”; GKC 383 §119.z). As J. E. Hartley (Leviticus [WBC], 47) points out, “from” may refer to the removal of the sin, but is an awkward expression. Hartley also suggests that the phrasing might be “an elliptical expression for יְכַפֵּר עַל־לְטַהֵר אֶת־מִן, ‘he will make expiation for…to cleanse…from…,’ as in 16:30.”

4 tn Heb “there shall be forgiveness to him” or “it shall be forgiven to him” (KJV similar).

5 tn The word “bird” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for clarity.

6 sn The term “[standard] regulation” (מִשְׁפָּט, mishppat) here refers to the set of regulations for burnt offering birds in Lev 1:14-17.

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

8 tn See the note on 4:26 with regard to מִן, min.

9 tn Heb “there shall be forgiveness to him” or “it shall be forgiven to him” (KJV similar).

10 tn Heb “on his sin which he has sinned.”

11 tn Heb “there shall be forgiveness to him” or “it shall be forgiven to him.”

12 tn Heb “from his sin.”
