SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:15
Cuando alguna persona hiciere prevaricación, y pecare por yerro en las cosas santificadas al SEÑOR, traerá por su expiación al SEÑOR, un carnero sin tacha de los rebaños, conforme a tu estimación, de dos siclos de plata del siclo del santuario, por el pecado.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Leviticus 5:15
Verse 15. In the holy things of the Lord] This law seems to relate particularly to sacrilege, and defrauds in spiritual matters; such as the neglect to consecrate or redeem the firstborn, the withholding of the first-fruits, tithes, and such like; and, according to the rabbins, making any secular gain of Divine things, keeping back any part of the price of things dedicated to God, or withholding what man had vowed to pay. See a long list of these things in Ainsworth. With thy estimation] The wrong done or the defraud committed should be estimated at the number of shekels it was worth, or for which it would sell. These the defrauder was to pay down, to which he was to add a fifth part more, and bring a ram without blemish for a sin-offering besides.
There is an obscurity in the text, but this seems to be its meaning.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 15. If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance in the holy things of the Lord , etc.] In the payment of tithes, or offering first fruits as he ought, by withholding them, or any part of them, or through eating of sacred things he ought not: then shall he bring for his trespass unto the Lord ; for it being a trespass in holy things, it might be properly called a trespass to or against the Lord; unless this is rather to be understood of the offering brought to the Lord for his trespass as follows: a ram without blemish out of the flocks ; out of the sheep and not the goats, as Ben Gersom observes; and this being for sacrifice, or for a trespass in holy things though ignorantly done, an offering of more value is required than for sins of ignorance in other cases, ( Leviticus 5:6) a type of Christ, who for his strength may be compared to a ram, and to one without blemish, for his purity and holiness, and to a choice one, selected out of the flock, for his being chosen out from among the people: with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering ; that is, either an estimation was to be taken of the damage done in the holy things, an account of which was to be brought along with the ram, and the cost paid; or else the ram brought was to be of the value of, or worth shekels of silver; and the least of many being two, as Aben Ezra and Ben Gersom observe, the sense is, that the ram brought for the trespass offering should be at least worth two shekels of silver; so Jarchi and Ben Gersom.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-19 - Here are offerings to atone for trespasses against a neighbour. If man put to his own use unwittingly, any thing dedicated to God, he wa to bring this sacrifice. We are to be jealous over ourselves, to as pardon for the sin, and make satisfaction for the wrong, which we d but suspect ourselves guilty of. The law of God is so very broad, the occasions of sin in this guilty of. The law of God is so very broad the occasions of sin in this world are so numerous, and we are so pron to evil, that we need to fear always, and to pray always, that we ma be kept from sin. Also we should look before us at every step. The tru Christian daily pleads guilty before God, and seeks forgiveness throug the blood of Christ. And the gospel salvation is so free, that the poorest is not shut out; and so full, that the most burdened conscienc may find relief from it. Yet the evil of sin is so displayed as to cause every pardoned sinner to abhor and dread it __________________________________________________________________
