Leviticus 4 pt. 2 Another Perspective

Continuation of our verse by verse bible study in the book of Leviticus. The Jewish method of interpreting scripture is as follows: Peshat "plain" ("simple") or the direct meaning Remez  "hints" or the deep (allegoric: hidden or symbolic) meaning beyond just the literal sense. Derash  from Hebrew darash: "inquire" ("seek") — the comparative meaning, as given through similar occurrences. Sod  "secret" ("mystery") or the mystical meaning, as given through inspiration or revelation.
