Leviticus 6:6 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 6:6

And he shall bring his trespass [offering] unto the Lord,
&c.] That is, to the tabernacle of the Lord, to the altar of the Lord in it, and to his priest ministering therein, as it follows:

a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a
trespass [offering] unto the priest;
the same offering that was ordered for a trespass through ignorance, ( Leviticus 5:16 ) typical of the sacrifice of Christ offered up both for sins of ignorance and wilful transgressions, for his blood cleanses from all sin, (See Gill on Leviticus 5:16); the phrase "with thy estimation", used there also ( Leviticus 5:16 ) , is here interpreted by Ben Gersom of two shekels, the value the ram was to be of, brought for the trespass offering.
