Contextual Overview

19'You are to keep My statutes. You shall not breed together two kinds of your cattle; you shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed, nor wear clothing of two kinds of material mixed together. 20'Now if a man has intimate relations with a woman who is a slave acquired for [marriage to] another man, but who has not been redeemed nor given her freedom, there shall be punishment [after an investigation]; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free; 21but he shall bring his guilt offering to the LORD to the doorway of the Tent of Meeting, a ram as a guilt offering. 22'The priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before the LORD for his sin which he has committed; and he shall be forgiven for his sin. 23'When you enter the land and plant all kinds of trees for food, then you shall consider their fruit forbidden. For three years the fruit shall be forbidden to you; it shall not be eaten. 24'In the fourth year all the fruit shall be holy, an offering of praise to the LORD. 25'In the fifth year you may eat the fruit [of the trees], this is so that their yield may increase for you; I am the LORD your God.26'You shall not eat anything with the blood, nor practice divination [using omens or witchcraft] or soothsaying. 27'You shall not trim and round off the side-growth of [the hair on] your heads, nor mar the edges of your beard. 28'You shall not make any cuts on your body [in mourning] for the dead, nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves; I am the LORD.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof,.... And so in all succeeding years as long as the tree lasted and bore:

that it may yield unto you the increase thereof; may be so abundantly blessed, and produce so large an increase as to answer the three years' want of any fruit from it, and the dedication of the fruit of the fourth year to the Lord:

I [am] the Lord your God; who has promised this increase, is both able and faithful to make it good.
