Summary

Leviticus 4:29 describes the sin offering for unintentional sins committed by the people of Israel. In this verse, the individual is instructed to lay their hand on the head of the sin offering before it is sacrificed, symbolizing the transfer of sin and guilt onto the animal. This act signifies the atonement and forgiveness of sins through the shedding of blood as a substitutionary sacrifice. The sin offering served as a way for the Israelites to seek reconciliation with God and restore their relationship with Him after unintentional transgressions.

John Gill Bible Commentary

And the priest shall take of the blood,.... So that all the preceding actions, the bringing the offering, the putting the hand upon the head of it, and slaying it, were done by the man that sinned; of this and what follows here and in the next verse Lev 4:31; see Gill on Lev 4:25, Lev 4:26. . Leviticus 4:32 lev 4:32 lev 4:32 lev 4:32And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering,.... As he might if he would; the Jews observe, that in all places a lamb is put before a goat, as being more excellent in its kind; but here it is mentioned after, which shows, they say, that they are equally alike (p): he shall bring it a female without blemish; typical of Christ the Lamb of God, without spot and without blemish, Pe1 1:19. (p) T. Bab. Pesachim, fol. 57. 2. & Ceritot, fol. 28. 2.
