4. tenth deal--that is, an omer, the tenth part of an ephah

Numbers Chapter 15 22 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
22. if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments, &c.--respecting the performance of divine worship, and the rites and ceremonies that constitute the holy service. The law relates only to any omission and consequently is quite different from that laid down in
Le 4:13,
which implies a transgression or positive neglect of some observances required. This law relates to private parties or individual tribes; that to the whole congregation of Israel.
Nu 15:1-41.
THE LAW OF SUNDRY OFFERINGS.
1, 2. The Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel--Some infer from
Nu 15:23
that the date of this communication must be fixed towards the close of the wanderings in the wilderness; and, also, that all the sacrifices prescribed in the law were to be offered only after the settlement in Canaan.
