SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:6
Habla a los hijos de Israel: El hombre o la mujer que cometiere alguno de todos los pecados de los hombres, haciendo prevaricación contra el SEÑOR, y pecare aquella persona;
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. Speak unto the children of Israel , etc.] Put them in mind of the following law, that they observe it; and which is here repeated, because of two new things in it, as Jarchi observes, the one relates to confession, teaching that there is no fifth part nor trespass offering by witnesses, till a man confesses the thing; and the other is, concerning taking anything away by violence from a proselyte, which is to be given to the priests; see the original law in ( Leviticus 6:1-7); when a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit ; or, “any of the sins of men” f26 , which are commonly done by men, and men are subject to through the infirmity of the flesh, and the temptations of Satan; or “any sin against man” f27 , so some, as this referred to is expressly said to be, ( Numbers 5:7); to do a trespass against the Lord ; for every sin against man is also against the Lord, being a breach of his command; as David’s sin against Uriah was a sin against the Lord, ( Psalm 51:4); though the Jews understand it particularly of lying and swearing falsely, appealing to God, and calling him to be a witness to a falsehood; and so the Targum of Onkelos seems to interpret it: and the person be guilty ; and knows he is so, and even knew it when he took an oath to the contrary; (see Leviticus 6:3,4).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-10 - The camp was to be cleansed. The purity of the church must be kept a carefully as the peace and order of it. Every polluted Israelite mus be separated. The wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable. The greater profession of religion any house or family makes, the more the are obliged to put away iniquity far from them. If a man overreach of defraud his brother in any matter, it is a trespass against the Lord who strictly charges and commands us to do justly. What is to be don when a man's awakened conscience charges him with guilt of this kind though done long ago? He must confess his sin, confess it to God confess it to his neighbour, and take shame to himself; though it go against him to own himself in a lie, yet he must do it. Satisfactio must be made for the offence done to God, as well as for the los sustained by the neighbour; restitution in that case is not enoug without faith and repentance. While that which is wrongly gotten i knowingly kept, the guilt remains on the conscience, and is not don away by sacrifice or offering, prayers or tears; for it is the same ac of sin persisted in. This is the doctrine of right reason, and of the word of God. It detects hypocrites, and directs the tender conscienc to proper conduct, which, springing from faith in Christ, will make wa for inward peace.
