Numbers 15:14 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 15:14

And if a stranger sojourn with you
A stranger, or proselyte, not of the gate, but of righteousness, as Ben Gersom and the Jewish, writers in general interpret it;

or whatsoever [be] among you in your generations;
whether such a proselyte settled and continued among them, or only stayed with them awhile:

and will offer an offering made by fire of a sweet savour unto the
Lord;
is desirous of offering a burnt offering or a peace offering to the Lord in an acceptable manner:

as ye do, so shall he do;
bring the same meat offering and drink offering, according to the nature and number of the cattle he brings for sacrifice.

Numbers 15:14 In-Context

12 According to the number that you prepare, so shall you do with every one according to their number.
13 All who are native shall do these things in this way, in offering an offering by fire, a pleasing odor to the LORD.
14 And if a stranger is sojourning with you, or any one is among you throughout your generations, and he wishes to offer an offering by fire, a pleasing odor to the LORD, he shall do as you do.
15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you, a perpetual statute throughout your generations; as you are, so shall the sojourner be before the LORD.
16 One law and one ordinance shall be for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you."
