Leviticus 27:18

18 And if he should sanctify his field in the latter time after the release, the priest shall reckon to him the money for the remaining years, until the year of release, and it shall be deducted as an equivalent from his full valuation.

Leviticus 27:18 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 27:18

But if he sanctify his field after the jubilee
Some years after it, more or fewer, or it may be, when half way towards another jubilee, or nearer:

then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years
that remain, even unto the year of the jubilee;
thus, for instance, if it only required an homer of barley to sow it, and the whole value of it from jubilee to jubilee was but fifty shekels of silver; then supposing it to be sanctified in the middle of the fifty years, or at twenty five years' end, it was to be reckoned at twenty five shekels, and sold for that money, and so in proportion, reckoning a shekel for a year:

and it shall be abated from thy estimation;
not the year of jubilee, but a shekel for every year was to be deducted from the original value of fifty shekels, according to the number of years that had passed or were to come.

Leviticus 27:18 In-Context

16 And if a man should hallow to the Lord a part of the field of his possession, then the valuation shall be according to its seed, fifty didrachms of silver for a homer of barley.

17 And if he should sanctify his field from the year of release, it shall stand according to his valuation.

18 And if he should sanctify his field in the latter time after the release, the priest shall reckon to him the money for the remaining years, until the year of release, and it shall be deducted as an equivalent from his full valuation.

19 And if he that sanctified the field would redeem it, he shall add to its value the fifth part of the money, and it shall be his.

20 And if he do not redeem the field, but should sell the field to another man, he shall not after redeem it.
