1. Leviticus 14:20–21 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

What is the difference between the rituals and procedures mentioned in Leviticus 14:21–32 and Leviticus 14:10–20?

Leviticus 14:20–21 (ESV)

20 And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. Thus the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean.

Leviticus 14:21–32 present virtually the same the rituals and procedures as Leviticus 14:10–20. The only difference is that the sacrifices in Leviticus 14:21–32 are ones that the poor man can afford. The animals listed would have been less expensive. Birds are substituted for the larger animals, and the amount of grain is two-thirds less than that of the normal grain offering.
