‏ Leviticus 14:19

v. 19-20: The person also had to bring a sin-offering and a burnt-offering, both with a lamb (v. 19, 20 a). These offerings meant that the person’s sins were forgiven and they could now join in worship with everyone else. When God removes a problem from our lives, it is even better if He also forgives our sins (Romans 5:11 b). The burnt-offering was a way to thank God for His mercy, especially when He had clearly worked in both the sickness and the healing. Jesus told people He healed to make these offerings as a testimony to others (Mark 1:44 c). This showed that God had truly cleansed them, both inside and out.
