Leviticus 19:22 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 19:22

And the priest shall make an atonement for him
By offering his sacrifice for him, typical of the atoning sacrifice of Christ: with the ram of his trespass offering before the Lord;
presented before him at the door of the tabernacle, and offered up on his altar: for his sin which he hath done;
or "sinned", which is so expressed, according to Jarchi, to take in his sin, whether done ignorantly or presumptuously: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him;
upon the atonement made, as all the sins of God's people are forgiven through Christ, upon the foot of his atoning sacrifice, see ( Hebrews 9:22 ) .

Leviticus 19:22 In-Context

(If a man sleepeth with a woman by fleshly knowing of seed, which woman is a slave-girl, or a bondwoman, and betrothed to another, but nevertheless not bought back with money, or rewarded with freedom, she shall be beaten/both of them shall be scourged, but they shall not die, for she was not free.)

23 When ye have entered into the land of promise, and have planted therein apple trees, ye shall do away the first fruits; (for three years) the apples which those trees bring forth shall be unclean to you, neither ye shall eat of them.

24 Forsooth in the fourth year all the fruit of the trees shall be hallowed and be praiseable to the Lord; (But in the fourth year, all the fruit of the trees shall be declared holy, and shall be given as a gift to the Lord;)
