Numbers 15:14 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 15:14

And if a stranger sojourn with you
A stranger, or proselyte, not of the gate, but of righteousness, as Ben Gersom and the Jewish, writers in general interpret it;

or whatsoever [be] among you in your generations;
whether such a proselyte settled and continued among them, or only stayed with them awhile:

and will offer an offering made by fire of a sweet savour unto the
Lord;
is desirous of offering a burnt offering or a peace offering to the Lord in an acceptable manner:

as ye do, so shall he do;
bring the same meat offering and drink offering, according to the nature and number of the cattle he brings for sacrifice.

Numbers 15:14 In-Context

12 Do this for each one, for as many as you prepare.

13 “ ‘Everyone who is native-born must do these things in this way when they present a food offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD.

14 For the generations to come, whenever a foreigner or anyone else living among you presents a food offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD, they must do exactly as you do.

15 The community is to have the same rules for you and for the foreigner residing among you; this is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. You and the foreigner shall be the same before the LORD:

16 The same laws and regulations will apply both to you and to the foreigner residing among you.’ ”
