Riveduta Bibbia
E il sacerdote farà l’espiazione per tutta la raunanza dei figliuoli d’Israele, e sarà loro perdonato, perché è stato un peccato commesso per errore, ed essi hanno portato la loro offerta, un sacrifizio fatto all’Eterno mediante il fuoco, e il loro sacrifizio per il peccato dinanzi all’Eterno, a causa del loro errore.
Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
E faccia il sacerdote il purgamento per tutta la raunanza de’ figliuoli d’Israele, e sarà loro perdonato; perciocchè è errore, ed essi hanno addotta davanti al Signore la loro offerta da ardere al Signore, e il sacrificio per lo peccato, per l’error loro.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel;.... By offering a sin offering for them, a type of Christ, the propitiation not only for the sins of the people among the Jews, but throughout the whole world, 1 John 2:2;

and it shall be forgiven them; as the sins of the Lord's people are forgiven them through the blood of Christ, and on account of his stoning sacrifice and satisfaction made for them:

for it [is] ignorance; a sin of ignorance, for which reason Christ pleads for pardon on the foot of his sacrifice, and his people receive it, Luke 23:34; for that this sin was forgiven on the score of a sacrifice appears by what follows:

and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord; the bullock for the burnt offering:

and their sin offering before the Lord, for their ignorance; a kid of the goats.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The heavy punishments which had already overtaken the people might naturally give rise to apprehensions for the future, especially in view of the fact that on the approaching entrance into Canaan the complete observance of the Law in all its details would become imperative on them. To meet such apprehensions a distinction is emphatically drawn between sins of ignorance (Leviticus 4:13 ff) and those of presumption Numbers 15:30-31. The passage deals separately with imperfections of obedience which would be regarded as attaching to the whole nation Numbers 15:22-26, and those of individuals Numbers 15:27-30.

Numbers 15:24

Without the knowledge of the congregation - literally, as marginal. The words point to an error of omission which escaped notice at the time: i. e. to an oversight.

Numbers 15:30

Presumptuously - The original (compare the margin, and Exodus 14:8) imports something done willfully and openly; in the case of a sin against God it implies that the act is committed ostentatiously and in bravado.

Reproacheth the Lord - Rather, revileth or blasphemeth the Lord: compare Ezekiel 20:27.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Numbers 15:25. The priest shall make an atonement — Even sins committed through ignorance required an atonement; and God in his mercy has provided one for them.
