{Leviticus 25:11} A jubile 3104 shall that x1931 fiftieth 2572 y8141 year 8141 be x1961 unto you: ye shall not x3808 sow, 2232 z8799 neither x3808 reap 7114 z8799 x853 that which groweth y5599 of itself x5599 in it, nor x3808 gather 1219 z8799 [the grapes] in it x853 of thy vine undressed. 5139
A jubilee:
Respecting the literal meaning of the word יובל, yobel, or yovel, critics are not agreed. The most natural derivation of the word seems to be from הוביל, hovil, the Hiphil form of יבל, yaval, to recall, restore, or bring back, because this year restored all slaves to their liberty, and brought back all alienated estates to their primitive owners. Accordingly the LXX render it here αφεσις, a "remission"; and Josephus says it signifies ελευθεριαν, liberty. "If¹ he sanctifyª° his fieldª from the yearª¹ of jubile,ª according to thy estimationª it shall stand.ª°" {Lev 27:17}
ye shall:
"¹ That which groweth of its own accordª of thy harvestª thou shalt not¹ reap,ª° neither¹ gatherª° the grapesª of thy vine undressed:ª [for] it is¹ a yearª of restª unto the land.ª ... And for thy cattle,ª and for the beastª that¹ [are] in thy land,ª shall all¹ the increaseª thereof be¹ meat.ª°" {Lev 25:5-7}
