Leviticus 25
25:3
a Six years thou shalt sow thy field,
and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;
(
a) The Jews began to count the year in
September: for then all the fruits were gathered.
25:5 That which groweth of its
b
own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of thy
vine
c undressed: [for] it is a year of
rest unto the land.
(
b) Because of the corn that fell out of the ears
the previous year.
(
c) Or, which you have separated from yourself,
and consecrated to God for the poor.
25:6 And the
d
sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for thee, and for thy servant, and
for thy maid, and for thy hired servant, and for thy stranger that sojourneth
with thee,
(
d) That which the land brings forth in her rest.
25:9 e
Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth [day] of
the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound
throughout all your land.
(
e) In the beginning of the 50 years was the
Jubile, so called, because the joyful tidings of liberty were publicly
proclaimed by the sound of a cornet.
25:10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and
proclaim liberty throughout [all] the land unto all the
f
inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every
man unto his
g possession, and ye shall
return every man unto his family.
(
f) Which were in bondage.
(
g) Because the tribes should neither have their
possessions diminished nor confounded.
25:14
And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest [ought] of thy
neighbour's hand, ye shall
h not
oppress one another:
(
h) By deceit, or otherwise.
25:15 According to the number of
i
years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, [and] according unto the
number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:
(
i) If the Jubile to come is near, you would be
better to sell cheaply. If it is far off, sell at a higher price.
25:16 According to the multitude of years thou
shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of years thou
shalt diminish the price of it: for [according] to the number [of the years] of
the
k fruits doth he sell unto thee.
(
k) And not the full possession of the land.
25:23
The land shall not be sold
l for ever:
for the land [is] mine; for ye [are] strangers and sojourners with me.
(
l) It could not be sold for ever, but must
return to the family in the Jubile.
25:24 And in all the land of your possession ye
shall
m grant a redemption for the land.
(
m) You shall sell it on the condition that it
may be redeemed.
25:27
Then let him
n count the years of the
sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he
may return unto his possession.
(
n) Deducting money for the years past, and
paying for the rest of the years to come.
25:28 But if he be not able to restore [it] to him,
then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it
until the year of jubile: and in the jubile it shall go
o
out, and he shall return unto his possession.
(
o) From his hand that bought it.
25:30 And if it be not
redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that [is] in the walled
city shall be established
p for ever to
him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubile.
(
p) That is, for ever, read (
Leviticus
25:23).
25:34
But the field of the
q suburbs of their
cities may not be sold; for it [is] their perpetual possession.
(
q) Where the Levites kept their cattle.
25:35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and
r
fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: [yea, though he be] a
stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee.
(
r) In Hebrew it is, if his hand shake: meaning
if he stretch forth his hand for help as one in misery.
25:42
For they [are] my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they
shall not
s be sold as bondmen.
(
s) To perpetual servitude.
25:45
Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them
shall ye buy, and of their families that [are] with you, which they begat in
your land: and they shall be your
t
possession.
(
t) For they shall not be bought out at the
Jubile.
25:49
Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or [any] that is nigh of
kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or
u
if he be able, he may redeem himself.
(
u) If he be able.
25:50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him
from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of
his sale shall be according unto the number of
x
years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.
(
x) Which remains yet to the Jubile.
25:53
[And] as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: [and the other] shall not
rule with rigour over him in thy
y
sight.
(
y) You shall not allow him to treat him
severely, if you know it.
