A lamb - A sheep. See Leviticus 3:7 note. Three points are to be observed in regard to the victims for sin-offerings. (a) The common people had to offer a female, as the less valuable animaI; they might present either a sheep or a goat to suit their convenience: (b) the rulers had always to offer a male-goat: (c) the goat was preferred to the sheep, unlike the victim for a peace-offering or burnt-offering. The sin-offerings were not accompanied by meat-offerings or drink-offerings. See Numbers 15:3-11. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
