Matthew Poole and continuators on Leviticus 22:16

16 Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of trespass , when they eat their holy things: for I the LORD do sanctifie them.

(i. e.) T[illegible: 1+ letters]ey i. e. the Priests, shall not (the negative particle being understood out of the foregoing clause, as Psal. 1. 5. and 9. 18.) suffer them, i. e. the people, to bear the iniquity of trespass, i. e. the punishment of their sin, which they might expect from God, and for the prevention whereof the priest was to see restitution made, &c. The words may be rendred thus, But (so the Hebrew vau is oft translated) they i. e. the Priests, shall make them, i. e. the people, to bear the iniquity, or punishment of their trespass or sin, i. e. they shall require from them reparations in manner here expressed.

Marginal references: Or, lade themselves with the iniquity of trespass in their eating.
