Contextual Overview
10 ‘But no one who is not a religious leader may eat the holy gift. One who is visiting the religious leader or working for him must not eat of the holy gift. 11 But a person whom the religious leader buys to work for him with his own money may eat of it. And those who are born in his house may eat of his food. 12 If a religious leader's daughter is married to a man who is not a religious leader, she must not eat of the holy gifts. 13 But if a religious leader's daughter loses her husband by death or divorce, and has no child and returns to her father's house as when she was young, she may eat of her father's food. But no stranger may eat of it. 14 If a man eats a holy gift by mistake, he must add a fifth of its worth to it and give the holy gift to the religious leader. 15 The religious leaders must not make the holy gifts unclean that the people of Israel give to the Lord. 16 This would bring sin upon them when they eat their holy gifts. For I am the Lord Who makes them holy.'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And if a man eat [of] the holy thing unwittingly,.... Either not knowing that it is an holy thing, or the heave offering, or any thing of that kind; or else is ignorant of the punishment of such an action, as Gersom observes; and this is to be understood of any man that was not a priest, or was not of the priest's family, even any common Israelite; so the Targum of Jonathan, a man of Israel, or an Israelite, one of the common people:
then he shall put a fifth part thereof unto it; a fifth part of the value of what he has eaten, to an equivalent for the whole, that is, he shall pay the full value for what he has eaten, and a fifth part besides:
and shall give [it] to the priest with the holy thing; the meaning is, that he shall give the fifth part to the priest, with the equivalent for what he has eaten; for he could not give the holy thing itself, but a compensation for it; according to Gersom, he was to give the principal to the priest, whose the holy thing was he ate of, and the fifth part he might give to what priest he would. The Jewish canon, concerning this matter, runs thus; he that ignorantly eats the heave offering pays the principal, and the fifth part; and the same, either he that eats, or drinks, or anoints; and whether the heave offering be clean or unclean, he pays the fifth, and the fifth of the fifth; and he does not pay the heave offering but of common things, rightly ordered, and they become an heave offering, and the compensation of it; and if the priest would forgive, he may not p.
