Leviticus 27:21 - Forerunner Commentary

Leviticus 27:21

19 And if he who dedicates the field ever wishes to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall belong to him.

20 But if he does not want to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore;

21 but the field, ^awhen it is released in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the Lord, as a ^bdevoted field; it shall be ^cthe possession of the priest.

22 ‘And if a man dedicates to the Lord a field which he has bought, which is not the field of ^ahis possession,

23 then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation, up to the Year of Jubilee, and he shall give your valuation on that day as a holy offering to the Lord.

24 ^aIn the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, to the one who owned the land as a possession.

25 And all your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: ^atwenty gerahs to the shekel.

26 ‘But the ^afirstborn of the animals, which should be the Lord’s firstborn, no man shall dedicate; whether it is an ox or sheep, it is the Lord’s.
