Leviticus 4:35

Context
4:35 Then the one who brought the offering 1  must remove all its fat (just as the fat of the sheep is removed from the peace offering sacrifice) and the priest must offer them up in smoke on the altar on top of the other gifts of the Lord. So the priest will make atonement 2  on his behalf for his sin which he has committed and he will be forgiven. 3 

1 tn Heb “Then he”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here “he” refers to the offerer rather than the priest (contrast the clauses before and after).

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 him” or “it shall be forgiven to him” (KJV similar).
