1. He who sins in concealing his knowledge

Then he shall prepare
This phrase indicates a specific action required by the priest, emphasizing the importance of following God's instructions precisely. The Hebrew root for "prepare" is "עָשָׂה" (asah), which means to do, make, or accomplish. This reflects the meticulous nature of the sacrificial system, where each step is significant in maintaining the holiness and order prescribed by God.

the second bird
The use of "the second bird" highlights the provision for those who could not afford larger sacrifices, such as a lamb. This demonstrates God's compassion and understanding of human limitations, ensuring that atonement was accessible to all, regardless of economic status. Historically, this provision underscores the inclusivity of God's covenant with Israel.

as a burnt offering
The burnt offering, or "עֹלָה" (olah) in Hebrew, signifies complete surrender to God, as the offering is wholly consumed by fire. This symbolizes the worshiper's total dedication and the desire for purification. The burnt offering is a recurring theme throughout the Old Testament, representing a foundational aspect of Israel's relationship with God.

according to the ordinance
This phrase underscores the importance of adhering to divine instructions. The Hebrew word "מִשְׁפָּט" (mishpat) refers to a judgment or decree, indicating that these rituals were not arbitrary but divinely ordained. This reflects the broader biblical theme of obedience to God's law as a pathway to righteousness and blessing.

In this way the priest will make atonement
The role of the priest as a mediator is central here. The Hebrew word for atonement, "כָּפַר" (kaphar), means to cover or reconcile. This act of atonement points forward to the ultimate atonement made by Jesus Christ, who is the perfect High Priest and the final sacrifice for sin, as understood in the New Testament.

for him for the sin he has committed
This phrase acknowledges personal responsibility for sin, a key tenet in the biblical narrative. The Hebrew word for sin, "חֵטְא" (chet), implies missing the mark or falling short of God's standards. The sacrificial system provided a means for individuals to restore their relationship with God, prefiguring the complete forgiveness available through Christ.

and he will be forgiven
Forgiveness, or "סָלַח" (salach) in Hebrew, is a profound act of divine grace. This assurance of forgiveness upon the completion of the prescribed ritual highlights God's mercy and willingness to restore His people. In the broader biblical context, this foreshadows the New Testament message of forgiveness through faith in Jesus Christ, emphasizing God's unchanging nature as a forgiving and loving Father.

(10) According to the manner.--That is, according to the rites prescribed in Leviticus 1:14, &c.
