Komentaryong Sumisipi para sa Levitico 4:22

And when a soul offers a meal offering. Who typically volunteers a meal offering? A poor person. The Holy One, Blessed be He, said: I consider it as if he offered his soul (Menachot 104b). For this reason, it states in Parshat Tzav (6:9) it shall be eaten as matzah, meaning poor man’s bread, as all this relates to the poor person who is naturally humble like matzah dough that does not rise.
In this way, the order of all these sacrifices can be explained. Whatever is first in the verses is first to lead to sin, as it is written Jeshurun grew fat and kicked (Deuteronomy 32:15). Anyone who is greater than his fellow in wealth or honor has a stronger evil inclination, as evidenced by what is said When a leader sins (Leviticus 4:22), where the word when [asher] indicates certainty, because his position of leadership brings him to sin as his evil inclination is greater than others.
Therefore, Scripture first mentions cattle, which is presumably offered by the wealthy, then sheep, which is typically brought by the middle class, then bird offerings, which the poor person typically brings, and finally the meal offering, which is brought by those in extreme poverty.

הפסח והמילה במצות עשה – and they have extirpation, but there is no sacrifice for their inadvertent [transgression]. But all of these are negative commandments, and they are liable for a sacrifice for their inadvertent transgression, but the sacrifice is not other than for a negative commandment. For concerning the sacrifice, it is written (Leviticus 4:22): “who incurs guilt by doing unwittingly any of the things which by the commandment of the LORD his God ought not to be done.”

When a soul sins. We find three expressions regarding sinners: ki [when/if], im [if], and asher [that/who]. For an individual sinner, it is written When/if a soul sins. For many sinners, it says (4:13) If the entire congregation of Israel errs. And regarding a ruler, it is written (4:22) That a ruler sins. The commentators have said that the term ki indicates more certainty than the term im, and the term asher indicates more certainty than the term ki. Therefore, regarding the sin of the masses, which is something uncommon — for many to agree upon a sin — it says If the entire congregation of Israel errs, which indicates doubt. Similarly, regarding the anointed priest, it says (4:3) If the anointed priest sins, because it is remote and uncommon for the anointed priest or many people to sin. But an ordinary individual easily comes to sin; therefore it says When a soul sins, as the term ki indicates something that is almost certain to happen. However, the ruler who lifts himself above everyone and conducts his authority haughtily will certainly come to sin through his pride; therefore it says That a ruler sins, for the term asher indicates something that will definitely occur without doubt. And so you will find in the Zohar, in Rabbeinu Bachya, and in Toldot Yitzchak.
But I find this difficult because if so, why does it say (4:27) And if one soul sins — why does it mention for an individual sometimes the term “im” and sometimes the term “ki”? And furthermore, why does it say one soul, since by saying soul we know it is one and not two? And if the Scripture’s way is to say one soul, then why does it say When a soul sins and not say “one”?
