Levítico 27:13 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 27:13

But if he will at all redeem it
The owner of it, or he that has devoted it, if he is determined to have it again at any rate:

then he shall add a fifth [part] thereof unto thy estimation;
he shall give the full price for it, as rated by the priest, and for which it might be sold to another man, and a fifth part of the value of it besides; this was done that the full price might be paid for it, the priest not knowing, as it might be, the worth of it so well as the owner; and that the value of consecrated things might be kept to, and to make men careful how and what they devoted, since, though redeemable, they were obliged to pay a large price for them.

Levítico 27:13 In-Context

11 Se for algum animal imundo, dos que não se oferecem em oferta ao Senhor, apresentará o animal diante do sacerdote;
12 e o sacerdote o avaliará, seja bom ou seja mau; segundo tu, sacerdote, o avaliares, assim será.
13 Mas, se o homem, com efeito, quiser remi-lo, acrescentará a quinta parte sobre a tua avaliação.
14 Quando alguém santificar a sua casa para ser santa ao Senhor, o sacerdote a avaliará, seja boa ou seja má; como o sacerdote a avaliar, assim será.
15 Mas, se aquele que a tiver santificado quiser remir a sua casa, então acrescentará a quinta parte do dinheiro sobre a tua avaliação, e terá a casa.
