Génesis 47:24 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 47:24

And it shall come to pass, in the increase
When the land shall produce an increase, and it shall be gathered in:

that you shall give the fifth [part] unto Pharaoh;
a fifth part of the increase:

and four parts shall be your own;
for the following uses, one part

for seed of the field:
to sow again with for the next year: a second part

for your food;
for food for themselves: a third part

for them of your household;
their servants and maids: and the fourth part

for food for your little ones;
for their children, be they young or old; or however four parts of five he proposed they should have for their own use, and for the maintenance of their families, which was a kind and generous proposal, when all might have been demanded, and they and theirs treated as slaves.

Génesis 47:24 In-Context

22 Solamente la tierra de los sacerdotes no compr贸, pues los sacerdotes ten铆an raci贸n de parte de Fara贸n, y viv铆an de la raci贸n que Fara贸n les daba. Por tanto no vendieron su tierra.
23 Y Jos茅 dijo al pueblo: He aqu铆, hoy os he comprado a vosotros y a vuestras tierras para Fara贸n; ahora, aqu铆 hay semilla para vosotros; id y sembrad la tierra.
24 Al tiempo de la cosecha dar茅is la quinta parte a Fara贸n, y cuatro partes ser谩n vuestras para sembrar la tierra y para vuestro mantenimiento, para los de vuestras casas y para alimento de vuestros peque帽os.
25 Y ellos dijeron: Nos has salvado la vida. Hallemos gracia ante los ojos de Fara贸n mi se帽or, y seremos siervos de Fara贸n.
26 Entonces Jos茅 puso una ley respecto a la tierra de Egipto, en vigor hasta hoy: que Fara贸n deb铆a recibir el quinto; s贸lo la tierra de los sacerdotes no lleg贸 a ser de Fara贸n.
