Leviticus 19:21 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 19:21

He shall bring his trespass offering unto the Lord
To the priest of the Lord, to offer it for him; he, and not she, as the Targum of Jonathan has it; (See Gill on Leviticus 19:20): unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation;
where all offerings were to be brought, ( Leviticus 17:4 Leviticus 17:5 ) ; [even] a ram for a trespass offering;
which was the usual creature for such a sacrifice, ( Leviticus 5:15 Leviticus 5:18 ) ( 6:6 ) ; the woman was not obliged to bring any, she being a bondmaid; and so having nothing of her own, but what was her master's, her circumstances are considered, and scourging was sufficient.
