In the Mishneh Torah, Maimonides enumerates forty-three sins, which if committed unintentionally entail a Fixed Sin-offering.* * Mishneh Torah, Korbanoth, Hilchoth Shegagoth I, 4
It should be noted that repentance was the first prerequisite for atonement, and without it the prescribed offering –whether Sin-offering or Guilt-offering- was of no account whatever, and had to be brought anew.* * Mishneh Torah, Korbanoth, Hilchoth Shegagoth III, 10
