Levítico 25:48-55

Listen to Levítico 25:48-55
48 él tendrá derecho de redención después de ser vendido; uno de sus hermanos podrá redimirlo;
49 o su tío o el hijo de su tío podrán redimirlo; o un pariente cercano de su familia podrá redimirlo; o si prospera, él mismo podrá redimirse.
50 "Entonces él, con su comprador, calculará desde el año en que se vendió a él hasta el año de jubileo, y el precio de su venta corresponderá al número de años. Los días que estará con él serán como los días de un jornalero.
51 "Si aún le quedan muchos años, devolverá parte de su precio de compra en proporción a ellos para su propia redención;
52 y si quedan pocos años hasta el año de jubileo, así los calculará con él. En proporción a los años devolverá la cantidad de su redención.
53 "Lo tratará como quien trabaja a jornal año por año; no se enseñoreará de él con severidad delante de sus ojos.
54 "Aunque no sea redimido por estos medios, todavía saldrá libre en el año de jubileo, él y sus hijos con él.
55 "Pues los hijos de Israel son mis siervos; siervos míos son, a quienes saqué de la tierra de Egipto. Yo soy el SEÑOR vuestro Dios.

Levítico 25:48-55 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO LEVITICUS 25

In this chapter the Israelites are directed, when come into the land of Canaan, to observe every seventh year as a sabbatical year, in which there was to be no tillage of the land, and yet there would be a sufficiency for man and beast, Le 25:1-7; and every fiftieth year as a year of jubilee, in which also there was to be no tillage of the land, and every man was to return to his possession or estate, which had been sold to another any time before this, Le 25:8-17; and a promise of safety and plenty in the seventh year is made to encourage the observance of it, Le 25:18-22; and several laws and rules are delivered out concerning the sale of lands, the redemption of them, and their return to their original owner in the year of jubilee, Le 25:23-28; and the sale of houses, and the redemption of them, and the difference between those in walled cities and those in villages, with respect thereunto, Le 25:29-31; and also concerning the houses of the cities of the Levites, and the fields of the suburbs of them, Le 25:32-34; to which are added some instructions about relieving decayed, persons, and lending and giving to them, without taking usury of them, Le 25:34-38; and other laws concerning the release of such Israelites as had sold themselves for servants to the Israelites, in the year of jubilee, since none but Heathens were to be bondmen and bondmaids for ever, Le 25:39-46; and of such who were sold to proselytes, Le 25:47-55.
