Contextual Overview

10 And, on the eighth day, he shall take two he-lambs, without defect, and one ewe-lamb, the choice of its year without defect, - and three-tenths of fine meal for a meal-offering, overflowed with oil, and one log of oil. 11 And the priest that is cleansing him shall cause the man that is to be cleansed, and those things to stand before Yahweh, at the opening of the tent of meeting. 12 And the priest shall take one he-lamb, and bring him near as a guilt-bearer and the log of oil, - and shall wave them as a wave-offering, before Yahweh; 13 and shall slay the lamb in the place where the sin-bearer and the ascending-sacrifice are slain, in the holy place, - for like the sin-bearer, the guilt-bearer, is the priests, most holy, it is. 14 Then shall the priest take of the blood of the guilt-bearer, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, - and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot; 15 and the priest shall take of the log of oil, - and shall pour it upon the palm of the priest's left hand, 16 and the priest shall dip his right finger and take of the oil that is on the palm of his left hand, - and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before Yahweh: 17 and of the remainder of the oil which is on the palm of his hand, shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, - upon the blood of the guilt-bearer; 18 and that which remaineth of the oil that is on the palm of the priest's hand, he shall put upon the head of him that is to be cleansed, - so shall the priest put a propitiatory-covering over him, before Yahweh. 19 Then shall the priest offer the sin-bearer, and shall put a propitiatory-covering over him that is to be cleansed because of his uncleanness, - and, afterwards, shall he slay the ascending-sacrifice.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the meat offering upon the altar,.... The meat offering which belonged to that, and went along with it, even one tenth deal of fine flour mingled with oil; but no mention being made of any meat offering with the other offerings already offered, the trespass offering and the sin offering; some say, as Aben Ezra observes, that the whole meat offering, consisting of three tenth deals of fine flour, was offered with the burnt offering, which must be a saving to the priest, if he only burnt one handful of it, as in other cases, the rest falling to his part:

and the priest shall make an atonement for him; these offerings still furthering of it, and sending to perfect it, and did complete it:

and he shall be clean; in a typical and ceremonial sense.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The cleansed leper was now in a position to avail himself of the accustomed law of sacrifice as one completely restored. The ewe lamb was now offered in his behalf as a sin-offering, one of the young rams as a burnt-offering, and the fine flour mingled with oil as a meat-offering.
