Chasidut sobre Levítico 5:17

וְאִם־נֶ֙פֶשׁ֙ כִּ֣י תֶֽחֱטָ֔א וְעָֽשְׂתָ֗ה אַחַת֙ מִכָּל־מִצְוֺ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֖ר לֹ֣א תֵעָשֶׂ֑ינָה וְלֹֽא־יָדַ֥ע וְאָשֵׁ֖ם וְנָשָׂ֥א עֲוֺנֽוֹ׃

Se alguém pecar, fazendo qualquer de todas as coisas que o SENHOR ordenou que não se fizessem, ainda que não o soubesse, contudo será ele culpado, e levará a sua iniqüidade;

Kedushat Levi

Leviticus 5,17. “and if a person who has sinned by ‎inadvertently committing one of the acts that ought not to be ‎committed, and as a result has become guilty;” it is well ‎known that the more a person is engaged in serving G’d the less ‎he thinks of his own worth as an individual when compared to ‎the Creator and His greatness. However, when a person performs ‎a commandment of the Torah and at the same time reflects on ‎the insignificance of the commandment in the overall scheme of ‎things, he commits a wrong; this is the reason why this verse ‎commences with the conjunctive letter ‎ו‎ which is hard to justify ‎from the context of the paragraph. The meaning of the whole ‎line is that as a result of such an attitude he becomes guilty, ‎although the attitude was the direct product of his performing a ‎Torah commandment. [The author clearly arrives at this ‎exegesis as he was at a loss why the Torah had to tell us that a ‎person who transgresses a negative commandment becomes ‎guilty; who did not know this? Ed.]
