Answered in 1 source

The high priest offered both gifts and sin sacrifices as prescribed by the law.

According to the law, the high priest was responsible for offering various kinds of sacrifices on behalf of the people. This included both gifts of praise and offerings specifically for sin. As noted in Hebrews 5:1, a high priest was ordained to act in matters pertaining to God, offering sacrifices to atone for the sins of the people. The law meticulously details these sacrificial offerings, emphasizing their necessity in maintaining a relationship with God and underscoring the greater sacrifice of Christ, who offered Himself once for all, fulfilling the requirements of the law.
