Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Leviticus 5:12

(12) And the priest shall take.—After he separated a handful of the flour, which was burnt on the altar as a memorial to the Lord (see Leviticus 2:12), the officiating priest consumed the rest.According to the offering made by fire.—Better, upon the offering made by fire. (See Leviticus 4:35.) read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Leviticus 5:13

(13) As touching his sin that he had sinned in one of these.—That is, in one of the three sins specified in Leviticus 5:1-4 of this chapter. (See Leviticus 5:5.)And the remnant shall be the priest’s.—Better, and it shall belong to the priest. The word remnant is not in the original, and is better left out, since with the exception of the handful which he took out to burn upon the altar, the whole tenth part of the ephah of fine flour belonged to the priest. At the time of Christ, this only took... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Leviticus 5:1-13

THE RITUAL OF THE SIN OFFERINGLeviticus 4:4-35; Leviticus 5:1-13; Leviticus 6:24-30ACCORDING to the Authorised Version, {; Leviticus 5:6-7} it might seem that the section, Leviticus 5:1-13, referred not to the sin offering, but to the guilt offering, like the latter part of the chapter; but, as suggested in the margin of the Revised Version, in these verses we may properly read, instead of "guilt offering," "for his guilt." That the latter rendering is to be preferred is clear when we observe... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 5:1-19

OFFERING FOR A SPECIFIC SIN (vv. 1-6) The subject of the sin offering is continued in this chapter up to the end of verse 13. It is a descending scale, for the specific sin has to be brought to the attention of the offender, and the offering made, but allowance also made for a lesser offering in the case of poverty. Verse 1 is a sin of omission. One may hear and know of a matter of serious importance and yet not report it. In law this is called misprision, but it is sin before God. “The voice... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Leviticus 5:1-19

THE SIN AND TRESPASS OFFERINGS THE SIN OFFERING The data for the sin offering is found in Leviticus 4:1-35 ; Leviticus 5:1-13 and Leviticus 6:24-30 . As to the name of this offering, it will be seen that “sin” is mentioned here for the first time in connection with the law of the offerings. The idea of sin is included in the others, but it was not the predominating idea as it is here. There was atonement for sin in the other offerings, but rather for sin in man’s nature than the actual... read more
