What new section begins in Leviticus 4:32?

Leviticus 4:32 (ESV)

32 “If he brings a lamb as his offering for a sin offering, he shall bring a female without blemish

This section presents an alternative option for when an individual offers a female sheep. The ritual is the same as that for the female goat. This alternative possibility for the individual Hebrew demonstrates some latitude in the types of offerings that can be made.
