John Gill Commentary Leviticus 22:16

"and [so] cause them to bear the iniquity that bringeth guilt, when they eat their holy things: for I am Jehovah who sanctifieth them." — Leviticus 22:16 (ASV)

Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of trespass The punishment of sin: either the strangers, when they eat their holy things ; the holy things belonging to the priests, which they permitting them to do, suffer them to be liable to the punishment incurred thereby, or else the priests themselves; so the Septuagint version renders the word "themselves"; and in like manner Jarchi interprets it;

and then the sense may be, according to the Targums of Jonathan and Onkelos, that the priests shall bear the punishment of their sins, ``when they shall eat the holy things in uncleanness,'' which is what is forbidden them in the former part of the chapter; but this seems to be too remote; rather the former sense is best:

for I the Lord do sanctify them ; both the priests, to whom the holy things belong, and the holy things for their use, and the use of their families, and them only.
