Levítico 27:22

22 Y si santificare alguno á Jehová la tierra que él compró, que no era de la tierra de su herencia,

Levítico 27:22 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 27:22

And if [a man] sanctify unto the Lord a field which he hath
bought
With his own money, of some person in poverty and distress, who was obliged to sell it, and which, according to a former law, returned to the original proprietor in the year of jubilee:

which [is] not of the fields of his possession;
which he has not by inheritance from his fathers. Jarchi observes, there is a difference between a field bought, and a field possessed; for a field bought is not divided to the priests in the year of jubilee, because a man cannot sanctify it but until the year of jubilee; for in the year of jubilee it would go out of his hands, and return to the owner; wherefore if he comes to redeem it, he must redeem it with the price fixed for the field of possession: the Jewish doctors are divided about a field bought of a father by a son, whether it is a field of purchase or of possession ^F6.

Levítico 27:22 In-Context

20 Mas si él no redimiere la tierra, y la tierra se vendiere á otro, no la redimirá más;

21 Sino que cuando saliere en el jubileo, la tierra será santa á Jehová, como tierra consagrada: la posesión de ella será del sacerdote.

22 Y si santificare alguno á Jehová la tierra que él compró, que no era de la tierra de su herencia,

23 Entonces el sacerdote calculará con él la suma de tu estimación hasta el año del jubileo, y aquel día dará tu señalado precio, cosa consagrada á Jehová.

24 En el año del jubileo, volverá la tierra á aquél de quien él la compró, cuya es la herencia de la tierra.
