א֚וֹ הוֹדַ֣ע אֵלָ֔יו חַטָּאת֖וֹ אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָטָ֑א וְהֵבִ֨יא קָרְבָּנ֜וֹ שְׂעִירַ֤ת עִזִּים֙ תְּמִימָ֣ה נְקֵבָ֔ה עַל־חַטָּאת֖וֹ אֲשֶׁ֥ר חָטָֽא׃
ou quando a transgressão que cometeu for revelada, ela trará sua oferta, uma cabra fêmea sem defeito, pela transgressão que cometeu.
Jerusalem Talmud Shevuot
Rebbi Bun asked, if he did not know at the end, how could be bring a sacrifice65Since any obligatory offering cannot be brought voluntarily, the fact that a sacrifice is commanded implies that the person can prove it is obligatory, i. e., he knows that a sin has been committed. Therefore the mention of ‘knowledge” in the verse cannot refer to his knowledge at the moment he offers the sacrifice.? But if it does not refer to knowledge at the end, let it refer to knowledge at the beginning66And the mention of forgetting must be interpreted as read by R. Aqiba here and R. Ismael in the Babli sources.. They objected: Is it not written, or his transgression came to his knowledge, he has to bring67Lev. 4:23, about the purification offering of the prince. Purification offerings are for inadvertent sins; nowhere is prior knowledge and intermediate forgetting indicated. R. Bun’s argument would force the transfer of the rules for variable sacrifices to purification ones against all tradition.? Then if it does not refer to knowledge at the beginning, let it refer to knowledge at the end68A “suspended” reparation sacrifice is brought if the person suspects but is not sure that he has sinned (Lev. 5:17–18). If he then gains certainty that he has committed an inadvertent sin, a purification sacrifice is due if and only if he gains this knowledge before the next Day of Atonement. R. Bun’s argument is justified.! Explain it as referring to those who are obligated for certain purification and reparation offerings for which the Day of Atonement has passed who have to bring after the day of Atonement, while those obligated for suspended reparation sacrifices are no longer liable. The verse says, or his transgression came to his knowledge, he has to bring even after the Day of Atonement70Yoma 8:6 (45b l. 47), Babli Keritut 25b..
