Levitico 27:31 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 27:31

And if a man, will redeem [ought] of his tithes
Of his own, and not his neighbour's, as Jarchi observes; for if he redeemed the tithes of his neighbour, but did not add a fifth part, which he was obliged to do if he redeemed his own, as follows:

he shall add thereunto the fifth [part] thereof;
besides giving the value for what part of his tithes he redeemed, he gave a fifth part of that sum over and above; as, supposing the tithe was worth fifty shillings, then he gave that, and ten shillings more, and so in proportion. The use of this redemption, as Jarchi suggests, was, that he might have liberty of eating it in any place: for he understands it of the second tithe, as before observed, and which was to be eaten at Jerusalem.

Levitico 27:31 In-Context

29 Niuno interdetto, consacrato d’infra gli uomini, si possa riscattare; del tutto sia fatto morire.
30 Tutte le decime eziandio della terra così delle semenze della terra, come dei frutti degli alberi, appartengono al Signore; son cosa sacra al Signore.
31 E se pure alcuno vuol riscattar delle sue decime, sopraggiunga il quinto al prezzo di esse.
32 Parimente sia cosa sacra al Signore ogni decima di buoi, e di pecore, e di capre; ogni decimo animale di tutti quelli che passano sotto la verga.
33 Non discernasi tra buono e cattivo; e non permutisi l’un con l’altro; e se pure alcuno permuta l’un con l’altro, quel decimo, e quell’altro messo in suo scambio, saranno cosa sacra; non si potranno riscattare.
