Êxodo 23:10 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 23:10

And six years thou shall sow thy land,
The land of Canaan, given to their ancestors and to them, and which they were now going to inherit; and when they came into it they were to plant it with vines and olives; or rather, these being ready planted, they were to prune and dress them; and they were to till their land, and plough it, and sow it with various sorts of grain, for six years running, from the time of their possession of it:

and shall gather in the fruits thereof;
corn and wine, and oil, into their own garners, treasuries, and cellars, as their own property, to dispose of as they pleased for their own use and profit.

Êxodo 23:10 In-Context

8 Também não aceitarás peita, porque a peita cega os que têm vista, e perverte as palavras dos justos.
9 Outrossim, não oprimirás o estrangeiro; pois vós conheceis o coração do estrangeiro, porque fostes estrangeiros na terra do Egito.
10 Seis anos semearás tua terra, e recolherás os seus frutos;
11 mas no sétimo ano a deixarás descansar e ficar em pousio, para que os pobres do teu povo possam comer, e do que estes deixarem comam os animais do campo. Assim farás com a tua vinha e com o teu olival.
12 Seis dias farás os teus trabalhos, mas ao sétimo dia descansarás; para que descanse o teu boi e o teu jumento, e para que tome alento o filho da tua escrava e o estrangeiro.
