The Restitution of Misappropriated Property. This regulation supplements the law contained in Leviticus 6:1, which, dealing with the restitution of property wrongfully appropriated, omits to explain how it is to be disposed of, if the owner has died without leaving any kinsman to whom restitution may be made. The present enactment enjoins that the property in such a case shall pass to the priest as Yahweh's representative.

Numbers 5:9. heave offering: better, contribution, the word meaning in strictness anything heaved (or lifted) from a larger aggregate.
