take some of the blood from the guilt offering

on Leviticus 14:14-20

Blood goes on the right earlobe, the right thumb and the right big toe. Exodus 29:20 marks the priests at the same three points, so a man shut out comes back marked where a priest is marked.

And this was considered to make atonement "for him"; that is, it removed that ceremonial pollution which had excluded him from the enjoyment of religious ordinances, just as the atonement of Christ restores all who are cleansed through faith in His sacrifice to the privileges of the children of God.
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.
