The verb “commit" (m‛l) normally indicates that one has violated their legal obligation; they have acted unfaithfully or treacherously. The term often occurs in the context of breaking covenantal relationships, such as the relationship between the Lord and the Israelites (Leviticus 26:40; Joshua 22:16; Joshua 22:31; Ezekiel 14:13; Ezekiel 17:20; Ezekiel 20:27; Ezekiel 39:23), and husband and wife (Numbers 5:12). This suggests to the reader that these sins are not petty crimes but the violation of holy things. However, in light of the passage as a whole, the reader must bear in mind that this action does not suggest a premeditated sin. The adverbial phrase, “sins unintentionally” sheds light on the nature of the sin in question. The specific offence, however, is left unstated.
15 Lorsque quelqu'un commettra une infidélité et péchera involontairement à l'égard des choses consacrées à l'Eternel, il offrira en sacrifice de culpabilité à l'Eternel pour son péché un bélier sans défaut, pris du troupeau d'après ton estimation en sicles d'argent, selon le sicle du sanctuaire.
