If an Israelite was too poor to afford a sheep, then God was pleased to accept something that was within the offerer’s reach ​ — two turtledoves or two pigeons.
Tātad, ja izraēlietis bija tik nabadzīgs, ka viņam nepietika līdzekļu, lai upurētu kazu vai aitu, Dievs ar prieku pieņēma tādu upuri, ko cilvēks varēja atļauties, — divas ūbeles vai divus baložus.
