Book ◦ Chapter

and if it was done unintentionally without the knowledge of the congregation
This phrase addresses sins committed unintentionally, highlighting the distinction between intentional and unintentional sins in the Mosaic Law. Unintentional sins are those committed out of ignorance or error, not out of willful disobedience. The concept of unintentional sin underscores the importance of awareness and knowledge of God's laws. In the broader biblical context, this reflects the human condition of fallibility and the need for divine grace. The congregation's lack of knowledge implies a collective responsibility, emphasizing the communal nature of Israel's covenant relationship with God.

then the whole congregation is to prepare one young bull as a burnt offering
The young bull as a burnt offering signifies atonement and dedication to God. Burnt offerings were entirely consumed by fire, symbolizing complete surrender to God's will. The use of a young bull, a valuable and significant sacrifice, indicates the seriousness of the sin and the community's collective responsibility. This offering serves as a means of restoring the relationship between the congregation and God, highlighting the need for communal repentance and reconciliation.

a pleasing aroma to the LORD
The phrase "a pleasing aroma" is a recurring motif in the Old Testament, signifying God's acceptance of the sacrifice. It reflects the idea that the offering, when made with a sincere heart, is agreeable to God. This concept is echoed in the New Testament, where believers are encouraged to live lives that are a "fragrant offering" to God (Ephesians 5:2). The pleasing aroma symbolizes divine satisfaction and the restoration of fellowship between God and His people.

with its grain offering and drink offering according to the regulation
The inclusion of a grain offering and drink offering alongside the burnt offering follows the prescribed regulations in Levitical law. The grain offering, often made of fine flour, oil, and frankincense, represents the fruits of human labor and dedication to God. The drink offering, typically wine, symbolizes joy and celebration in God's presence. Together, these offerings complement the burnt offering, providing a holistic act of worship and devotion, acknowledging God's provision and sovereignty.

and one male goat as a sin offering
The male goat as a sin offering specifically addresses the expiation of sin. In Levitical law, the sin offering was essential for atonement, symbolizing the removal of sin and impurity. The use of a male goat highlights the substitutionary aspect of the sacrifice, prefiguring the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who is described as the "Lamb of God" who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). This offering underscores the necessity of bloodshed for the forgiveness of sins, a theme that runs throughout Scripture and finds fulfillment in the New Testament.

What Does Numbers 15:24 Mean

Context

Numbers 15 interrupts Israel’s wilderness narrative with statutes that look ahead to life in the land. Verses 22-29 deal with sins Israel might commit “unintentionally.” Similar provisions already appear inLeviticus 4:13-21, showing God’s consistent concern that His people stay in fellowship with Him even when unaware of wrongdoing.

Unintentional Sin Defined

• “If it was done unintentionally without the knowledge of the congregation” (v. 24) highlights deeds that violate God’s commands yet lack deliberate rebellion.

•Psalm 19:12 echoes this category: “Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.”

• Though the sin is unintentional, guilt is real (Leviticus 5:17-19). God’s holiness demands that every breach—known or unknown—be addressed.

Corporate Responsibility

• The entire congregation shares liability when a communal act goes astray.Joshua 7:1-12 shows how one man’s sin (Achan) implicated the nation.

•Galatians 6:2 urges believers to “carry one another’s burdens,” underscoring that the family of God responds together to sin’s fallout.

Prescribed Sacrifices: Burnt Offering

• “One young bull as a burnt offering… with its grain offering and drink offering according to the regulation” (v. 24).

• Burnt offerings (Leviticus 1:3-9) symbolize total surrender; the entire animal is consumed on the altar.

• Including grain (Numbers 15:4) and drink (Exodus 29:40) offerings reflects thankfulness for God’s provision.

•Romans 12:1 parallels this imagery, calling believers to present themselves as “living sacrifices.”

Prescribed Sacrifices: Sin Offering

• “And one male goat as a sin offering.”

• The sin offering (Leviticus 4:23-35) deals directly with guilt, emphasizing substitution—life for life.

•Hebrews 9:22 states, “Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.”

Aroma Pleasing to the Lord

• The phrase “a pleasing aroma to the LORD” (v. 24) assures acceptance (Genesis 8:21).

•Ephesians 5:2 applies this language to Christ’s self-offering, describing it as “a fragrant aroma.”

Regulation and Order

• “According to the regulation” anchors worship to God’s revealed pattern, preventing innovation that corrupts holiness (Leviticus 10:1-2).

•1 Corinthians 14:40 echoes the principle: “Let all things be done decently and in order.”

Foreshadowing Christ

• The bull points to Christ’s complete devotion (Hebrews 10:7-10).

• The goat pictures His sin-bearing work (Isaiah 53:6;2 Corinthians 5:21).

• By combining offerings, God paints a multifaceted portrait of the one sacrifice that would satisfy every requirement (Hebrews 10:12-14).

Application for Believers Today

• Examine habits and assumptions that may offend God unwittingly (1 John 1:8-9).

• Practice corporate confession during gathered worship (James 5:16).

• Celebrate Christ’s once-for-all atonement while pursuing holiness in gratitude (1 Peter 1:15-19).

summary

Numbers 15:24 teaches that even unintentional sin disrupts fellowship with a holy God, calling for specific sacrifices that involve the whole community. The bull and goat underscore complete consecration and substitutionary atonement. These offerings prefigure Christ, whose perfect sacrifice cleanses hidden faults and secures our acceptance. Consequently, believers respond with humble confession, mutual accountability, and lives offered wholly to the Lord.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(24)By ignorance.--The wordshegagahis used to denote transgressions committed unwittingly in contrast to sins committed presumptuously (Numbers 15:30). (SeeLeviticus 4:2 and Note.) Provision had already been made in Leviticus 4 for sins of commission committed unwittingly by the whole congregation, but no provision appears to have been made for the guilt contracted in the case of sins of omission. It is possible, also, that in this place transgressions committed by an individual, but affecting the whole of the congregation, may be included. InLeviticus 4:14 a young bullock is appointed as a sin offering; in the present case a young bullock is appointed for a burnt offering and a kid of the goats for a sin offering. It must be remembered, moreover, that the commandments delivered in this chapter have express reference to the land of Canaan, whereas many of the commandments previously delivered had already become obligatory.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 24. -Ifought be committed. Rather, "if it be committed,"i.e., the non-observance of "all these commandments." It cannot, however, be necessary to suppose that a falling away from the whole body of the Mosaic legislation is here intended; such an apostasy could not happen by oversight, and if it did, the remedy provided would seem much too slight for the occasion. The analogy of the provision which follows (verse 27), and of the parallel provisions inLeviticus 4:2, 13, points clearly to the neglect of any one of the Divine commandments.Oneyoung bullock for a burnt offering. In the case of a sin of commission done ignorantly, the bullock was treated as a sin offering (Leviticus 4:14, 20), for in that case the expiation of guilt incurred is the prominent point in the atonement; in this case it is the necessity of a fresh self-dedication to the Lord. According to the manner,כַּמִּשְׁפָט, according to the ordinance given above.One kid of the goats for a sin offering. This was no doubt offered first, because expiation must precede self-oblation, but the bullock is mentioned first as forming the principal part of the sacrifice. The kid was probably treated according to the regulations ofLeviticus 4:14,sq.
