Contextual Overview

10 And, on the eighth day, he shall take two he-lambs, without defect, and one ewe-lamb, the choice of its year without defect, - and three-tenths of fine meal for a meal-offering, overflowed with oil, and one log of oil. 11 And the priest that is cleansing him shall cause the man that is to be cleansed, and those things to stand before Yahweh, at the opening of the tent of meeting. 12 And the priest shall take one he-lamb, and bring him near as a guilt-bearer and the log of oil, - and shall wave them as a wave-offering, before Yahweh; 13 and shall slay the lamb in the place where the sin-bearer and the ascending-sacrifice are slain, in the holy place, - for like the sin-bearer, the guilt-bearer, is the priests, most holy, it is. 14 Then shall the priest take of the blood of the guilt-bearer, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, - and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot; 15 and the priest shall take of the log of oil, - and shall pour it upon the palm of the priest's left hand, 16 and the priest shall dip his right finger and take of the oil that is on the palm of his left hand, - and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before Yahweh: 17 and of the remainder of the oil which is on the palm of his hand, shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, - upon the blood of the guilt-bearer; 18 and that which remaineth of the oil that is on the palm of the priest's hand, he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, - so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over him, before Yahweh. 19 Then shall the priest offer the sin-bearer, and shall put a propitiatory-covering over him that is to be cleansed because of his uncleanness, - and, afterwards, shall he slay the ascending-sacrifice.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the priest shall take one he lamb,.... One of the he lambs brought by the leper for his offering:

and offer him for a trespass offering; for though the leprosy itself was a disorder or disease, and not sinful, yet the cause of it was sin, a trespass against God, and therefore a trespass offering must be offered: which was typical of Christ, whose soul was made a trespass offering, Isaiah 53:10; where the same word is used as here:

and the log of oil; Isaiah 53:10- :;

and wave them [for] a wave offering before the Lord; heaving of them up and down, moving of them to and fro towards the several parts of the world, east, west, north, and south, even both the log of oil, and the he lamb for the trespass offering, and that alive, as Jarchi observes, and so says Maimonides o.

o Hilchot Mechosre Capharah, c. 4. sect. 2.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

This trespass-offering, with its blood and the oil, must be regarded as the main feature in the ceremony: no alteration being permitted even in the case of the poor Leviticus 14:21-23. There appears to be no other case in which an entire victim was waved (see Leviticus 7:30) before Yahweh. The Levites are spoken of as “a wave offering,” Numbers 8:11-15 (see the margin). The man in this case, represented by his trespass-offering, was dedicated as a Wave-offering in like manner.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Leviticus 14:12. Wave-offering — See Exodus 29:27, and Leviticus 7:38, where the reader will find an ample account of all the various offerings and sacrifices used among the Jews.
