Wesley's Notes for Leviticus 22:11


22:9 Lest they bear sin - Incur guilt and punishment. For it - For the neglect or violation of it.

22:10 No stranger - Of a strange family, who is not a priest; but there is an exception to this rule, #Lev 22:11|. A sojourner - One that comes to his house and abides there for a season, and eats at his table.

22:12 A stranger - To one of another family, who is no priest. Yet the priest's wife, though of another family, might eat. The reason of which difference is, because the wife passeth into the name, state and privileges of her husband, from whom the family is denominated.
