Leviticus 5:12
Ver. 12. Then shall he bring it to the priest,.... The flour just as it was, not kneaded and made into a cake, as appears by what follows:
and the priest shall take his handful of it; as much of the flour as he could hold in one hand:
[even] a memorial thereof; to bring to mind his sin, and the goodness of God in admitting of an offering for it, and forgiving it upon that:
and burn [it] on the altar, according to the offerings made by fire unto the Lord; in the same manner as other burnt offerings were made:
it [is] a sin [offering]; or an expiatory sacrifice for sin.
