Revision as of 14:24, 9 December 2015

This verse gives us some explication of the nature of a sin, apparently in contrast to a transgression.

There is an apparent connection between this verse and the story of the fall of Adam. Both involve a transgression that results in a need to sacrifice. Also in both cases, the exact nature of the transgression is unspecified.

Why will the Lord justify Joseph?
Is there a difference between the meaning of transgression in this verse and sin in verse 59?
If the Prophet Joseph was to do a "sacrifice" for his transgressions, are we to understand then that Joseph transgressed in some particular way?
What is the connection betweens a transgression and sacrifice?
What sacrifice was Joseph required to make?
