Leviticus5:17

17 And if a soul sin and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD, though he wist it not , yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.

To wit, concerning holy things, of which he is yet speaking, though with some difference and addition as it may seem. The former law concerns the alienation of holy things from the sacred to a common use, and this may concern other miscarriages about holy things and holy duties, as may be gathered from ver. 19. where this is said to be a trespass against the lord, not in a general sence, for so every sin was, but in a proper and peculiar sence.

For if he did it knowingly he must die, Num. 15. 30.
