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

23 When you shall be come into the land, and shall have planted in it fruit trees, you shall take away the firstfruits of them. The fruit that comes forth shall be unclean to you: neither shall you eat of them.
24 But in the fourth year, all their fruit shall be sanctified, to the praise of the Lord.
25 And in the fifth year you shall eat the fruits thereof, gathering the increase thereof. I am the Lord your God.
26 You shall not eat with blood. You shall not divine nor observe dreams.
27 Nor shall you cut your hair roundwise: nor shave your beard.
