Contextual Overview

⁸ And you shall number to yourself seven sabbaths of years, seven years times seven, and all the days of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty nine years. ⁹ And you shall let a ram's horn resound, a signal in the seventh month, in the tenth of the month; in the day of atonement, let a ram's horn pass throughout all your land; ¹⁰ and you shall make the fiftieth year holy, one year. And you shall proclaim liberty in the land to those living in it; it shall be a jubilee to you. And you shall return every man to his possession; yea, you shall turn back each to his family. ¹¹ It is a jubilee, the fiftieth year; it is a year to you. You shall not sow, nor reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from its unkept vines; ¹² for it is a jubilee, it is holy to you; you shall eat its increase out of the field. ¹³ In the year of jubilee you shall return each one to his possession. ¹⁴ And if you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy from the hand of your neighbor, you shall not each man oppress his brother. ¹⁵ By the number of years after the jubilee you shall buy from your neighbor; by the number of the years of increase he shall sell to you; ¹⁶ according to the many years you shall increase its price; and by the fewness of the years you shall diminish its price, for he is selling to you the number of crops. ¹⁷ And you shall not oppress each man his neighbor, and you shall fear your God, for I am Jehovah your God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them,.... These and all others he enjoined; by which tenure, even obedience to all his commands, moral, ritual, and judicial, they were to hold the land of Canaan, and their possessions in it, which is intended in the next clause:

and ye shall dwell in the land in safety; without any fear of enemies, or of the neighbouring nations about them seizing upon them, and distressing them; and Jarchi observes, that it was for transgressing the sabbatical year that Israel was carried captive, which he thinks is intimated in 2 Chronicles 36:21; and that the seventy years' captivity in Babylon were for the seventy sabbatical years that had been neglected.
