Leviticus 25:21 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 25:21

Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year,
&c.] Upon their fields, vineyards, and oliveyards, and make them exceeding fruitful, more than in other years; all fruitfulness at any time depends upon the blessing of God, and follows upon it, but is more visible and observable when there is an exceeding great plenty:

and it shall bring forth fruit for three years;
and thus God blessed the sixth year with such a plentiful increase as was sufficient for time to come, until a new crop was gathered in; as he had blessed the sixth day with a double portion of manna, for the supply of the seventh.

Leviticus 25:21 In-Context

19 The land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.
20 If you shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? Behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase;
21 then I will command my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for the three years.
22 You shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits, the old store; until the ninth year, until its fruits come in, you shall eat the old store.
23 The land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is mine: for you are strangers and sojourners with me.
