Contextual Overview

⁸And you have numbered seven Sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, and the days of the seven Sabbaths of years have been forty-nine years for you, ⁹and you have caused a horn of shouting to pass over in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; in the Day of Atonements you cause a horn to pass over through all your land; ¹⁰and you have hallowed the year, the fiftieth year; and you have proclaimed liberty in the land to all its inhabitants; it is a Jubilee for you; and you have turned back each to his possession; indeed, you return each to his family. ¹¹It [is] a Jubilee, the fiftieth year, it is a year for you; you do not sow, nor reap its spontaneous growth, nor gather its separated things; ¹²for it [is] a Jubilee—it is holy to you; you eat its increase from the field; ¹³you return each to his possession in this Year of the Jubilee. ¹⁴And when you sell anything to your fellow, or buy from the hand of your fellow, you do not oppress one another; ¹⁵you buy from your fellow by the number of years after the Jubilee; he sells to you by the number of the years of increase; ¹⁶you multiply its price according to the multitude of the years, and you diminish its price according to the fewness of the years; for [it is] a number of increases [that] he is selling to you; ¹⁷and you do not oppress one another, and you have been afraid of your God; for I [am] your God YHWH.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ye shall not therefore oppress one another,.... By over or underrating estates:

but thou shalt fear thy God; and the fear of God being before their eyes, and on their hearts, would preserve both buyer and seller from doing an ill thing, when it was in the power of either, through the necessity of the one, or the ignorance of the other, see Nehemiah 5:15:

for I [am] the Lord your God; omniscient, and knows all that is done in the most private and artful manner; and omnipotent and able to punish both, which of them either should oppress or defraud, see 1 Thessalonians 4:6.
