Leviticus 19:25 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 19:25

And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof
And so in all succeeding years as long as the tree lasted and bore: that it may yield unto you the increase thereof;
may be so abundantly blessed, and produce so large an increase as to answer the three years' want of any fruit from it, and the dedication of the fruit of the fourth year to the Lord: I [am] the Lord your God;
who has promised this increase, is both able and faithful to make it good.

Leviticus 19:25 In-Context

23 " 'When you enter the land, suppose you plant a fruit tree. Then do not eat its fruit for the first three years. The fruit is not "clean."
24 In the fourth year all of the fruit will be holy. Offer it as a way of showing praise to me.
25 But in the fifth year you can eat the fruit. Then you will gather more and more fruit. I am the LORD your God.
26 " 'Do not eat any meat that still has blood in it. " 'Do not practice any kind of evil magic at all.
27 " 'Do not cut the hair on the sides of your head. Do not clip off the edges of your beard.
