“And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the Lord for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.”
With the ram of the guilt offering the priest is to make atonement for him before the Lord for the sin he has committed, and his sin will be forgiven. The atonement and forgiveness formula closes the guilt offering regulation: the guilt offering makes atonement, the sin is forgiven. The consistent character of the God who forgives is applied even to the complex case of the violation with the promised slave. The forgiveness available through the guilt offering is available for every sin that the offering system addresses.
