wronged person or his representative. A part of the blood of the leper’s trespass- offering was applied to his person to consecrate him (as in the case of the ram of consecration to consecrate the priests
Lv 8:23
). The trespass-offering is unknown to JED and the older Hebrew literature. However, the Philistines send an
אשׁם
of golden mice and tumours

, and an
אשׁם
of money was given to the priests
2 K 12:17
, but these are entirely different from the trespass-offering of
P
. The Messianic servant offers himself as an
אשׁם
in compensation for the sins of the people, interposing for them as their substitute
Is 53:10
(incorrectly
offering for sin
