F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Leviticus 5:1-13

Trespass-Offerings for Various Sins Leviticus 5:1-13 The sin-offering was closely resembled by the trespass-offering; but they differed in this: that the former was meant to fix the thought of the sinner rather on the evil of his character, and that there was within him a root of bitterness and a poisonous fountain. But the latter deals with the acts of transgression to which this evil character gives rise, and more especially with the harm which it inflicts on others. We need to confess our... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 5:1-19

Commentators have not been in agreement in their interpretation of this section, some holding that it deals with the sin offering, some that it is the commencement of the trespass offering. I believe that the section dealing with the trespass offering begins here, notwithstanding that in the course of the passage the word "sin offering" occurs frequently. A careful examination will show that the sin offering merges into the trespass offering in interpretation. Trespass is more than a missing... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 5:1-4

The Guilt Or Trespass Offering - ’asam (Leviticus 5:1-11 ). The essence of the Guilt Offering is that it appears to be in respect of fixed types of sins which make the person guilty in the eyes of others who may have suffered because of their failures, or guilty in the eyes of the sanctuary. In both cases recompense is usually needed. But it is not a case here of either a purification for sin offering or a guilt offering. This Guilt Offering is also a purification for sin offering, in one... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 5:1-6

Leviticus 5:1-Joshua : . Sins for which Offerings are Necessary.— The first case is that of one who, when evidence in a trial is called for under a curse, deliberately conceals what he knows (there is no “ unwittingly” here); the crime of silence is paralleled with ceremonial uncleanness. The second case is that arising from contact either with an unclean animal or from other defilement. Further details of these taboos are given in Leviticus 12-15, and a harsher law is found in Numbers 19:13;... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 5:1-13

Leviticus 4:1 to Leviticus 5:13 . The Sin Offering.— This, and the guilt offering, whose ritual follows, are unknown before the Exile, save as fines ( 2 Kings 12:16, Amos 2:8). Ezek. mentions both, but is conscious of no difference between them. Probably the distinction between them grew up gradually (see on Ezekiel 5:14 ff.). The ritual is derived partly from that of the burnt offering and peace offering; partly from other old rites. No idea of substitution seems to be implied (though it is... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 5:4

If a soul swear, to wit, rashly, without consideration, either of God’s law, or his own power or right, as David did, 1 Samuel 25:22. To do evil; either, 1. To himself, to wit, to punish himself, either in his body, or estate, or something else which is dear to him. Or rather, 2. To his neighbour, as 1 Samuel 25:22; Acts 23:12. Or to do good, to wit, to his neighbour, as Mark 6:23, when a man either may not or cannot do it, which may frequently happen. And it be hid from him, i.e. he did not... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Leviticus 5:1-19

Trespasses Heedlessly CommittedSUGGESTIVE READINGSLeviticus 5:1.—If the soul … hear the voice of swearing. Sins may be acted out consciously and defiantly; for such there was no expiation provided. But sins may be committed without realising their sinfulness; of these the preceding chapter deals, and for such there was expiatory sacrifice and assured forgiveness. Yet, also, sins may be contracted where no volition or action occurs, by passive non-resistance, by tacit connivance, by incautious... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Leviticus 5:1-19

Chapter 5Chapter five.And if a soul sinned, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he has seen or known of it; and he does not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity ( Leviticus 5:1 ).If you touch any unclean thing and it goes on with some of the sins that you know to be wrong, and you swear against God, or do things that are to you knowledgeable, you're guilty, you know it.Then you shall confess that he has sinned in that thing ( Leviticus 5:5 ):So even though you were to... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 5:1-19

Leviticus 5:1. He shall bear his iniquity. Proverbs 29:24, seems to refer to this passage. “He that hears cursing, and betrays it not, hates his own soul.” The sons of Belial said, that they heard Naboth blaspheme God and the king. Both Satan and his servants will cite the scriptures to impose and deceive. Leviticus 5:2. If a soul touch any unclean thing. The carcase of a reptile, of an unclean beast, or a dead body. The daily impurities of the Hebrews were cleansed by washing, and by... read more

Ver. 4. To do evil. ] As David did to slay Nabal. 1Sa 25:22 Or to do good. ] As the same David did to do good to Mephibosheth, and yet he was not so good as his oath. And it be hid from him. ] As is usual with your common swearers, who will swear that they swear... read more
