John Gill Commentary
"And if any one sin, and do any of the things which Jehovah hath commanded not to be done; though he knew it not, yet is he guilty, and shall bear his iniquity." — Leviticus 5:17 (ASV)
And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which
are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the Lord
Respecting holy things:
though he wist it not ;
or did not know that he had transgressed a negative command:
yet he is guilty, and shall bear the iniquity ;
be chargeable with guilt, and is liable to punishment, and must make an atonement and satisfaction for it; see (Luke 12:48) .
