Numbers 15:26 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 15:26

And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children
of Israel
Which is repeated for the certainty of it, and for the sake of what follows:

and the stranger that sojourneth among them;
the proselyte of righteousness; so the blessing of pardon, through the propitiatory sacrifice of Christ, comes upon believing Gentiles as well as Jews, ( Romans 4:9 ) ( 1 John 2:2 ) ;

seeing all the people [were] in ignorance;
both the congregation of Israel and the stranger; (See Gill on Numbers 15:25).

Numbers 15:26 In-Context

24 If the people forget to obey one of these commands, all the people must offer a young bull as a burnt offering, a smell pleasing to the Lord. By law you must also give the grain offering and the drink offering with it, and you must bring a male goat as a sin offering.

25 "'The priest will remove that sin for all the Israelites so they will belong to the Lord. They are forgiven, because they didn't know they were sinning. For the wrong they did they brought offerings to the Lord, an offering by fire and a sin offering.

26 So all of the people of Israel and the foreigners living among them will be forgiven. No one meant to do wrong.

27 "'If just one person sins without meaning to, a year-old female goat must be brought for a sin offering.

28 The priest will remove the sin of the person who sinned accidentally. He will remove it before the Lord, and the person will be forgiven.
