Verse 28 is found in chapter 15 of Numbers. The instructions concerning the offering of firstfruits and unintentional sins distinguish between mistakes committed without intent and deliberate rebellion. Defiant sin is treated with particular severity because it represents conscious contempt for the divine command. The section shows that Israelite legislation recognizes different dimensions of moral responsibility and does not reduce all transgressions to a single category.
