Leviticus 5:18

18 "He must bring to the priest a ram from the flock as a guilt offering. It must not have any flaws. And it must be worth the required amount of money. "The priest will sacrifice the animal. That will pay for what the person has done wrong without meaning to. And he will be forgiven.

Leviticus 5:18 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 5:18

And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock,
&c.] (See Gill on Leviticus 5:15)

with thy estimation for a trespass [offering] to the priest;
along with the offering was to be brought an estimate of whatsoever damage had been done through the breach of any of the commands of God, where damage could take place, that so recompense be made as before directed; or else the ram brought was to be valued, and examined whether it was worth two shekels of silver, as before explained, (See Gill on Leviticus 5:15) but no fifth was required as in the former cases:

and the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his
ignorance wherein he erred, and wist [it] not, and it shall be
forgiven him; (See Gill on Leviticus 5:10) this is what the Jews call "Asham Talui", doubtful trespass offering.

Leviticus 5:18 In-Context

16 "He must also pay for the holy thing he refused to give. He must add a fifth of its value to it. He must give all of it to the priest. The priest will pay for the person's sin with the ram. It is a guilt offering. And he will be forgiven.
17 "Suppose a person sins by doing something I command him not to do. Even though he does not know it, he is guilty. He will be held accountable for it.
18 "He must bring to the priest a ram from the flock as a guilt offering. It must not have any flaws. And it must be worth the required amount of money. "The priest will sacrifice the animal. That will pay for what the person has done wrong without meaning to. And he will be forgiven.
19 It is a guilt offering. He has been guilty of doing wrong against me."
