Lìwèijì 25:20 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 25:20

And ye shall say, what shall ye eat the seventh year?
&c.] Such as are of little faith, disbelieve the promise, and distrust the providence of God, and take thought for tomorrow, and indulge an anxiety of mind how they shall be provided with food in the sabbatical year ordered to be observed, in which there were to be no tillage of land, nor pruning of trees: behold, we shall not sow;
that being forbidden: nor gather in our increase;
neither the barley, nor the wheat, nor the grapes, nor olives, nor figs, into their houses and barns, to lay up for stores, as in other years; though they might go out and gather in for present use in common with others: now if any should put the above question, as it was very likely some would, in such a view of things, the answer to it follows.
