Sin requires sacrifice no matter if it is intentional or unintentional

If someone commits an unintentional sin that defiles the Lord's scared property or his holy things

This could have been the first fruit, first son, the tithes, or a vowed offering

If they failed then they had to make atonement

The sin offering was not enough

They had to bring a guilt offering

Ram no defects or buy one of equal value with silver.

There had to be restitution -paying back what was lost and adding 20% to that

The offering had to cost them something maybe so they could remember to not do it again.

When we sin, It has already cost our Lord Jesus his life.
2 Cor 5:21 God made him who had no sin to be sin[a] for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

There had to be a priest and a sacrifice

They would give the offering to the priest and he would sacrifice the ram and they would be made right and be forgiven.

Blood had to be shed to be forgiven. But the blood of any animal could not satisfy the sin of a human.

Christ the high priest sacrificed and shed his blood for us for our sins both intentional and unintentional so that we could be forgiven because, without the shedding of blood, there could be no forgiven of our sins

Therefore, he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, since he always lives to intercede for them. Heb 7:25

Such a high priest truly meets our need—one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens. 27 Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself. Heb 7:26-27

Heb 9:12

Jesus satisfied this law 12 He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves; but he entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, thus obtaining[a] eternal redemption.

Even if you don't know you are guilty and shall bear punishment

"I don't know" was not an excuse that sin still had to be atoned for

The sin of ignorance still requires punishment…

Luke 12:48…the one who did not know and did what deserved punishment will receive a light beating

The same law for the one who acts in error Number 15:29

Even if we are not aware we are without excuse, we must repent and all our sins to Jesus. 1 John 1:9

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

"Ignorance of the law of God is itself a breach of law, since we are bidden to know and remember it." (Spurgeon)
