Leviticus 4 , Verse 1-12
The Sin Offering
The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Say to the Israelites: ‘When anyone sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands
3 “‘If the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, he must bring to the Lord a young bull without defect as a sin offering for the sin he has committed. 4 He is to present the bull at the entrance to the tent of meeting before the Lord. He is to lay his hand on its head and slaughter it there before the Lord. 5 Then the anointed priest shall take some of the bull’s blood and carry it into the tent of meeting. 6 He is to dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times before the Lord, in front of the curtain of the sanctuary. 7 The priest shall then put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of fragrant incense that is before the Lord in the tent of meeting. The rest of the bull’s blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 8 He shall remove all the fat from the bull of the sin offering—all the fat that is connected to the internal organs, 9 both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the long lobe of the liver, which he will remove with the kidneys— 10 just as the fat is removed from the ox sacrificed as a fellowship offering. Then the priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering. 11 But the hide of the bull and all its flesh, as well as the head and legs, the internal organs and the intestines— 12 that is, all the rest of the bull—he must take outside the camp to a place ceremonially clean, where the ashes are thrown, and burn it there in a wood fire on the ash heap.
My point of view about above verses
Commandments of God if anyone sins unintentionally
If priest sins unintentionally – he has to offer a bull as sin offering for the sin he committed. Priest has to dip his finger in blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord in front of the curtain of sanctuary, Priest has to put some of the blood on the horns of alter of fragrant incense. The rest of bull’s blood he shall pour out at the base of the alter of burnt offering. He shall remove all the fat which is connected to internal organs along the kidneys and liver to be burned on alter by priest and rest of the bull he must take outside the camp but at a clean place – where the ashes are and burn it there in a wood fire on the ash heap
