Contextual Overview

⁸ "‘Count off seven groups of seven years, or forty-nine years. During that time there will be seven years of rest for the land. ⁹ On the Day of Cleansing, you must blow the horn of a male sheep; this will be on the tenth day of the seventh month. You must blow the horn through the whole country. ¹⁰ Make the fiftieth year a special year, and announce freedom for all the people living in your country. This time will be called Jubilee. You will each go back to your own property, each to your own family and family group. ¹¹ The fiftieth year will be a special time for you to celebrate. Don't plant seeds, or harvest the crops that grow by themselves, or gather grapes from the vines that are not trimmed. ¹² That year is Jubilee; it will be a holy time for you. You may eat only the crops that come from the field. ¹³ In the year of Jubilee you each must go back to your own property. ¹⁴ "‘If you sell your land to your neighbor, or if you buy land from your neighbor, don't cheat each other. ¹⁵ If you want to buy your neighbor's land, count the number of years since the last Jubilee, and use that number to decide the right price. If your neighbor sells the land to you, count the number of years left for harvesting crops, and use that number to decide the right price. ¹⁶ If there are many years, the price will be high. But if there are only a few years, lower the price, because your neighbor is really selling only a few crops to you. ¹⁷ You must not cheat each other, but you must respect your God. I am the Lord your God.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

I will: As it is here graciously promised, that the sixth year was to bring forth fruits for three years, not merely for two, it is evident that both the sabbatical year and the year of jubilee were distinctly provided for. They were not to sow from the sixth to the eighth year, omitting two seed times; nor reap from the sixth to the ninth, omitting two harvests. No legislator, unless conscious of being divinely commissioned, would have committed himself by enacting such a law as this; nor would any people have submitted to receive it, except in consequence of the fullest conviction that a divine authority had dictated it. It therefore stands as a proof that Moses acted by the express direction of the Almighty, and that the people were fully persuaded of the reality of his divine mission by the miracles he wrought. Genesis 26:12, Genesis 41:47, Exodus 16:29, Deuteronomy 28:3, Deuteronomy 28:8, Psalms 133:3, Proverbs 10:22, 2 Corinthians 9:10

three years: Leviticus 25:4, Leviticus 25:8-11

Reciprocal: Exodus 16:5 - prepare Leviticus 26:4 - the land 2 Chronicles 31:10 - the Lord Psalms 42:8 - command Matthew 6:33 - and all Luke 13:7 - three Hebrews 6:7 - receiveth

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year,.... Upon their fields, vineyards, and oliveyards, and make them exceeding fruitful, more than in other years; all fruitfulness at any time depends upon the blessing of God, and follows upon it, but is more visible and observable when there is an exceeding great plenty:

and it shall bring forth fruit for three years; and thus God blessed the sixth year with such a plentiful increase as was sufficient for time to come, until a new crop was gathered in; as he had blessed the sixth day with a double portion of manna, for the supply of the seventh.
