Leviticus 4:4 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 4:4

And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord
As the bullock of the burnt offering; (See Gill on Leviticus 1:3):

and shall lay his hand on the bullock's head;
the Targum of Jonathan says his right hand; (See Gill on Leviticus 1:4):

and kill the bullock before the Lord;
at the door of the tabernacle, that is, in the court, as Gersom observes; according to the above Targum, the butcher killed it, and not the priest: (See Gill on Leviticus 1:5) all this is typical of the imputation of sin to Christ, and of his death.

Leviticus 4:4 In-Context

2 "Tell the Israelites: If a person unintentionally does something wrong--even one thing that is forbidden by any of the LORD's commands--this is what he must do.
3 "If the anointed priest does something wrong and brings guilt on the people, he must bring a bull that has no defects as an offering for sin to the LORD.
4 He must bring the bull into the LORD's presence at the entrance to the tent of meeting. He will place his hand on the bull's head. He will then slaughter the bull in the LORD's presence.
5 Then the anointed priest will take some of the bull's blood and bring it into the tent of meeting.
6 The priest will dip his finger in it and sprinkle some of the blood seven times in the LORD's presence facing the canopy in the holy place.
