We all sin! Sin is endemic to human nature: "There is not even a righteous person in the world who fails to sin." said Kohelet.
But our chapter directs attention not to the sin of the ordinary Israelite but to the sins of leaders: The High Priest, the judiciary and the political leadership.
Are their sins more egregious, or are they merely more prone to sin? Or are they possibly to set an example to us all?
