14 ‎[1] WHEN THE SIN WHEREIN THEY HAVE SINNED IS KNOWN. The same law, even though it is not mentioned, applies to the *kohen gadol*, for if the sin not be known to the *kohen gadol*, then he does not bring a sin offering. Others say that the *kohen gadol* shall bring this sacrifice every year because he may have sinned. Scripture mentions *the sin…is known* with regard to the whole congregation of Israel, for it is possible that the *kohen* will inform them. However, there is no one to inform the *kohen;* he informs himself. The sin offering of the congregation is the same as that of the *kohen gadol* in all details. The *kohen gadol* is thus equivalent to all of Israel.
