The guilt offering
The Hebrew term for "guilt offering" is "אָשָׁם" (asham), which signifies a sacrifice made for atonement of specific sins, particularly those involving desecration of holy things or unintentional sins requiring restitution. This offering underscores the gravity of sin and the need for reconciliation with God. It highlights the holiness of God and the seriousness with which He views sin, emphasizing the need for repentance and restitution.

is to be slaughtered
The act of slaughtering, "שָׁחַט" (shachat) in Hebrew, is a solemn ritual act that signifies the transfer of sin from the sinner to the sacrificial animal. This act prefigures the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world. It reminds believers of the cost of sin and the necessity of a substitute to bear the penalty on behalf of the sinner.

in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered
The location of the sacrifice is significant, as it is the same place where the burnt offering, "עֹלָה" (olah), is made. The burnt offering represents total dedication to God, as it is wholly consumed by fire. By sharing the same location, the guilt offering is linked to the concept of complete surrender and devotion to God, reinforcing the idea that atonement and dedication are inseparable in the life of a believer.

and the blood is to be sprinkled
The sprinkling of blood, "זָרַק" (zarak), is a critical component of the sacrificial system, symbolizing purification and atonement. Blood represents life (Leviticus 17:11), and its sprinkling signifies the cleansing of sin and the restoration of the sinner to a right relationship with God. This act foreshadows the shedding of Christ's blood, which cleanses believers from all unrighteousness.

against the altar on all sides
The altar, "מִזְבֵּחַ" (mizbeach), is the sacred place where sacrifices are offered to God. Sprinkling the blood on all sides of the altar signifies the comprehensive nature of atonement, covering all aspects of sin. It illustrates the thoroughness of God's forgiveness and the complete reconciliation available through the sacrificial system, ultimately fulfilled in Christ's atoning work on the cross.

(2, 4) In the place where they kill.--That is, the north side of the altar (Leviticus 1:11).

Shall they kill the trespass offering.--That is, the people who bring these sacrifices shall kill them, since the offerers themselves slaughtered the victim. (See Leviticus 1:5.)

The blood thereof shall he sprinkle.--Better, throw the blood. (See Leviticus 1:5.) Unlike the sin offering, the blood of which was thrown upon the horns of the altar (Leviticus 4:25; Leviticus 4:30; Leviticus 4:34), that of the trespass offering was simply thrown upon the walls of the altar, or round about it. (See Leviticus 5:9.) During the second Temple there was a scarlet line or thread round the altar, exactly in the middle. The blood of the trespass offering and of the peace offering was thrown round about below the central line, whilst that of the whole burnt offering was thrown round about above the central line. . . .
