Leviticus 5:2-3
5:2 Or when there is
a person who touches anything ceremonially
unclean, whether the carcass of an unclean wild animal, or the carcass of an unclean domesticated animal, or the carcass of an unclean creeping thing, even if he did not realize it,
but he himself has become unclean and is guilty;
5:3 or when he touches human uncleanness with regard to anything by which he can become unclean,
even if he did not realize it, but he himself has later come to know it and is guilty;
Leviticus 5:6-7
5:6 and he must bring his penalty for guilt
to the
Lord for his sin that he has committed, a female from the flock, whether a female sheep or a female goat, for a sin offering. So the priest will make atonement
on his behalf for
his sin.
5:7 “‘If he cannot afford an animal from the flock, he must bring his penalty for guilt for his sin that he has committed, two turtledoves or two young pigeons, to the Lord, one for a sin offering and one for a burnt offering.
Leviticus 5:18-19
5:18 and must bring a flawless ram from the flock, convertible into silver shekels,
for a guilt offering to the priest. So the priest will make atonement
on his behalf for his error which he committed
(although he himself had not known it) and he will be forgiven.
5:19 It is a guilt offering; he was surely guilty before the
Lord.”
