Leviticus 25:15

Context
25:15 You may buy it from your fellow citizen according to the number of years since 1  the last jubilee; he may sell it to you according to the years of produce that are left. 2 

Leviticus 25:45

Context
25:45 Also you may buy slaves 3  from the children of the foreigners who reside with you, and from their families that are 4  with you, whom they have fathered in your land, they may become your property.

1 tn Heb “in the number of years after.”

2 tn The words “that are left” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

sn The purchaser is actually buying only the crops that the land will produce until the next jubilee, since the land will revert to the original owner at that time. The purchaser, therefore, is not actually buying the land itself.

3 tn The word “slaves” is not in the Hebrew text, but is implied here.

4 tn Heb “family which is” (i.e., singular rather than plural).
