-102) Not to place oil on a meal-offering for sin
Application to gentiles: Irrelevant Mandated punishment for violation: None Brief description: Not to include oil in flour-offerings that are brought by poor Jews as a substitute for animals sacrificed as sin-offerings. Flour-offerings for sins are performed only by Levitical priests in the Jerusalem Temple, and furthermore gentiles may not bring sin-offerings altogether (see commandment +64). Category: Inapplicable Commandments Biblical source(s) (Rambam): Lev. 5:11 Biblical source (Sefer HaChinuch): Lev. 5:11 Number in Sefer HaChinuch: 125 Sources explaining relevance to gentiles: (See bibliography) Rambam, Mishneh Torah, Maaseh HaKorbanos 3:2 Gentiles may only bring ’olos to the Temple, not sin-offerings (apparently same for bamos elsewhere; thus no minchah sin-offering, either). Rambam, Mishneh Torah, Maaseh HaKorbanos 19:16 Gentiles may offer olah sacrifices on bamos in any location (implying not chataos, ashamos, shlamim, or menachos). Rashi, Talmud Bavli, Zevachim 45a (“Aku”m la maisu…”) Gentiles may only bring nedarim and nedavos, thus only personal ’olos and shlamim, not sin- or guilt-offerings or maasar behemah. Rambam, Mishneh Torah, Melachim 10:1 Other than for manslaughter, gentiles are not liable for sinning as a shogeig.
