118 - RESTITUTION FOR SACRILEGE


Leviticus 5:6 -- “And he shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD for his sin which he has committed, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats as a sin offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin.”
Leviticus 22:14 -- “And if a man eats the holy offering unintentionally, then he shall restore a holy offering to the priest, and add one-fifth to it.”

“In order that we may respect the sacrifices and all that is devoted to the name of God, we are told that whoever takes part of a holy thing for a common use has committed a trespass, and must bring a Sin-offering, and restore what he has taken with an addition of the fifth part of its value, although he may have committed the trespass in ignorance.”*

* Moreh Nebuchim III, 46
