Numbers 15:29 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 15:29

You shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance,
&c.] Which enjoins a she goat for a sin offering for such:

[both] for him that is born amongst the children of Israel, and for
the stranger that sojourneth among them;
both sinning through ignorance, the same sacrifice was offered for them, by which atonement was made, and through which their sin was forgiven; by whom are meant homeborn Israelites and proselytes of righteousness, who were under the same laws, and enjoyed the same privileges, as do now believing Jews and Gentiles.

27 'Also if one person sins unintentionally, then he shall offer a one year old female goat for a sin offering.
28 'The priest shall make atonement before the LORD for the person who goes astray when he sins unintentionally, making atonement for him that he may be forgiven.
29 'You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the sons of Israel and for the alien who sojourns among them.
30 'But the person who does anything defiantly , whether he is native or an alien, that one is blaspheming the LORD ; and that person shall be cut off from among his people.
31 'Because he has despised the word of the LORD and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his guilt will be on him.' "
