trespass offering.It is remarkable, that in this and the following verse, the sacrifice offered is indifferently called {asham,} a trespass offering, and {chattath,} a sin offering; yet the Marginal References show that these differ in several respects.
Sin offerings were sometimes offered for the whole congregation; trespass offerings never, but only for particular persons. Bullocks were sometimes used for sin offerings, never for trespass offerings.
The blood of the sin offerings was put on the horns of the altar, that of the trespass offerings was only sprinkled round the bottom of the altar.
The sin offering seems to have been for the expiation of offences committed in matters of religion, from a mistake or inadvertency respecting the law; but the trespass offering was required for the casual deviations from the ritual law, when well known, or for crimes against moral precepts, implying injustice to man.
Lev. 4:28,32• 28if his sin which he hath sinned come to his knowledge, then he shall bring his offering a goat, a female without blemish for his sin which he hath sinned.

3And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof: the fat tail, and the fat that covereth the inwards,
4and the two kidneys, and the fat that [is] on them, which [is] by the flanks, and the net above the liver which he shall take as far as the kidneys.
5And the priest shall burn them on the altar, a fire offering to Jehovah: it [is] a trespass offering.

JND Translation Notes

f
The Hebrew word for trespass is derived from a verb translated, "be guilty," ver. 2 and elsewhere.
g
Here is seen the use of "atonement," Heb. kaphar, to cover. It is a thing done for men towards God. It is not "sprinkling," "washing," nor exactly "propitiation," though that be nearer; but there was guilt on the man, a moral offensiveness which had to be removed out of God's sight. So it was in the offering. It was really bringing his trespass to God in the offering, but in the way of a given atonement for it, by entering into it as his. In ver. 7 it is lit. "he shall bring his trespass [offering] which he hath sinned." For the burnt-offering, which was also to make atonement [kaphar], see ch. 1.4.
