Leviticus 4:14 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 4:14

When the sin which they have sinned against it
Any of the commandments of the Lord forbidding such a thing to be done:

is known;
is made known to them by the priest, or any other, so that they are convinced that what has been done is wrong, though done through ignorance:

then the congregation shall offer a young bullock for the sin, and
bring him before the tabernacle of the congregation;
the same offering with that of the anointed priest, he being, as Aben Ezra on the place observes, equal to all Israel.

Leviticus 4:14 In-Context

12 all that remains of the bull—will be taken to a clean location outside the camp, to the ash heap. It should be burned there at the ash heap on a wood fire.
13 If it is the entire Israelite community that has done something wrong unintentionally and the deed escapes the assembly's notice—but they've done something that shouldn't be done in violation of the LORD's commands, becoming guilty of sin—
14 once the sin that they committed becomes known, the assembly must present a bull from the herd as a purification offering. They will bring it before the meeting tent.
15 The community elders will press their hands on the bull's head before the LORD and then slaughter it before the LORD.
16 The anointed priest will take some of the bull's blood into the meeting tent.
