Leviticus 19:25 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 19:25

And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof
And so in all succeeding years as long as the tree lasted and bore: that it may yield unto you the increase thereof;
may be so abundantly blessed, and produce so large an increase as to answer the three years' want of any fruit from it, and the dedication of the fruit of the fourth year to the Lord: I [am] the Lord your God;
who has promised this increase, is both able and faithful to make it good.

Leviticus 19:25 In-Context

24 'But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, an offering of praise to the LORD .
25 'In the fifth year you are to eat of its fruit, that its yield may increase for you; I am the LORD your God.
26 'You shall not eat anything with the blood, nor practice divination or soothsaying.
27 'You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard.
