Sinai & The Law

He shall take a lamb, and offer it for a trespass offering with the sextary of oil. And having offered all before the Lord,

He shall immolate the lamb, where the victim for sin is wont to be immolated, and the holocaust, that is, in the holy place. For as that which is for sin, so also the victim for a trespass offering pertaineth to the priest: it is holy of holies.

And the priest taking of the blood of the victim that was immolated for trespass, shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot.

And he shall pour of the sextary of oil into his own left hand,

And shall dip his right finger in it, and sprinkle it before the Lord seven times.

And the rest of the oil in his left hand, he shall pour upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot, and upon the blood that was shed for trespass:

And upon his head.

And he shall pray for him before the Lord, and shall offer the sacrifice for sin. Then shall he immolate the holocaust.

And put it on the altar with the libations thereof: and the man shall be rightly cleansed.

But if he be poor, and his hand cannot find the things aforesaid: he shall take a lamb for an offering for trespass, that the priest may pray for him, and a tenth part of flour tempered with oil for a sacrifice, and a sextary of oil:

And two turtles or two young pigeons, of which one may be for sin, and the other for a holocaust.

And he shall offer them on the eighth day of his purification to the priest, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the Lord.

And the priest receiving the lamb for trespass, and the sextary of oil, shall elevate them together.

And the lamb being immolated, he shall put of the blood thereof upon the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and the great toe of his right foot.

But he shall pour part of the oil into his own left hand,

And dipping the finger of his right hand in it, he shall sprinkle it seven times before the Lord.

And he shall touch the tip of the right ear of him that is cleansed, and the thumb of his right hand and the great toe of his right foot, in the place of the blood that was shed for trespass.

And the other part of the oil that is in his left hand, he shall pour upon the head of the purified person, that he may appease the Lord for him.

And he shall offer a turtle, or young pigeon:

One for trespass, and the other for a holocaust, with their libations.

This is the sacrifice of a leper, that is not able to have all things that appertain to his cleansing.

And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:

When you shall come into the land of Chanaan, which I will give you for a possession, if there be the plague or leprosy in a house:

He whose house it is, shall go and tell the priest, saying: It seemeth to me, that there is the plague of leprosy in my house,

And he shall command, that they carry forth all things out of the house, before he go into it, and see whether it have the leprosy, let all things become unclean that are in the house. And afterwards he shall go in to view the leprosy of the house.
