Leviticus 5:14

spake. This formula denotes another communication made at a different time, and gives a further development of the laws of the trespass offering. Note that in this book Jehovah "spake" at thirty-five "sundry times", and in ten "divers manners" (see App-10 ):

(1) To Moses alone (Leviticus 5:14 ; Leviticus 6:1 , Leviticus 6:19 ; Leviticus 8:1 ; Leviticus 14:1 ; Leviticus 22:26 ; Leviticus 23:26 ). (2) To Moses, to speak to Aaron alone (Leviticus 16:1 ). (3) To Moses, to speak to "Aaron and his sons" (Leviticus 6:8 , Leviticus 6:24 ; Leviticus 22:1 ). (4) To Moses, to speak to "the priests, the sons of Aaron" (Leviticus 21:1 ). (5) To Moses, to speak to "Aaron and his sons, and in all the children of Israel" (Leviticus 17:1 ; Leviticus 21:16 (Compare Lev 5:24 ); Leviticus 22:17 ). (6) To Moses, to speak to "the children of Israel" (Leviticus 1:1 ; Leviticus 4:1 ; Leviticus 7:22 , Leviticus 7:28 ; Leviticus 12:1 ; Leviticus 18:1 ; Leviticus 20:1 ; Leviticus 23:1 , Leviticus 23:9 , Leviticus 23:23 ; Leviticus 24:1 , Leviticus 24:13 ; Leviticus 25:1 ; Leviticus 27:1 ). (7) To Moses, to speak "to all the congregation of the children of Israel" (Leviticus 19:1 ). (8) To Moses and Aaron conjointly (Leviticus 13:1 ; Leviticus 14:33 ). (9) To Moses and Aaron, to speak to "the children of Israel" (Leviticus 11:1 ; Leviticus 15:1 ). (10) To Aaron alone (Leviticus 10:8 ).

The reasons for these distinctions will be seen from the respective contexts.
