During this year, land that had been sold was to be returned to its original family owners. The act of consecrating a field refers to dedicating it to the Lord, often as a vow or offering. This phrase indicates a situation where the field is consecrated not during the Jubilee but afterward, which affects its valuation. The Jubilee concept underscores themes of redemption and rest, reflecting God's provision and sovereignty over the land.the priest is to calculate the price The priest's role in calculating the price highlights the religious and judicial authority vested in the priesthood. This calculation was necessary to determine the monetary equivalent of the field's value, which would be based on its potential yield until the next Jubilee. The involvement of the priest ensures that the process is fair and in accordance with divine law, emphasizing the integration of spiritual oversight in economic matters.in proportion to the years left until the next Year of Jubilee This phrase indicates that the valuation of the field is directly related to the number of years remaining until the next Jubilee. The fewer the years, the lower the valuation, as the field would soon revert to its original owner. This system ensured that the economic transactions were just and prevented the permanent loss of family inheritance. It reflects the biblical principle of stewardship and the temporary nature of earthly possessions.so that your valuation will be reduced The reduction in valuation serves as a practical application of the Jubilee's principles, ensuring that the consecration of the field is fair and equitable. This reduction acknowledges the diminishing time the consecrated field would be in the possession of the one who consecrated it. It also serves as a reminder of the transient nature of material wealth and the importance of aligning economic practices with God's laws.

Thus, for instance, if he vowed the field at the estimated value of fifty shekels twenty years after the jubile, the priest is only to reckon the thirty years which have to run to the next jubile, and is to deduct twenty shekels for the twenty years which have elapsed since the last jubile. Accordingly, the vower would only have to pay thirty shekels, exclusive of the fifth part above the estimated value. <a href="/commentaries/leviticus/27-18.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>But if וְאִם־ (wə·’im-) Conjunctive waw | Conjunction <a href="/hebrew/strongs_518.htm">Strong's 518: </a> Lo!, whether?, if, although, Oh that!, when, not he consecrates יַקְדִּ֣ישׁ (yaq·dîš) Verb - Hifil - Imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6942.htm">Strong's 6942: </a> To be set apart or consecrated his field שָׂדֵהוּ֒ (śā·ḏê·hū) Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7704.htm">Strong's 7704: </a> Field, land after אַחַ֣ר (’a·ḥar) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_310.htm">Strong's 310: </a> The hind or following part the Jubilee, הַיֹּבֵל֮ (hay·yō·ḇêl) Article | Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3104.htm">Strong's 3104: </a> A ram, ram's horn (a wind instrument) the priest הַכֹּהֵ֜ן (hak·kō·hên) Article | Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3548.htm">Strong's 3548: </a> Priest is to calculate וְחִשַּׁב־ (wə·ḥiš·šaḇ-) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Piel - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2803.htm">Strong's 2803: </a> To think, account the price הַכֶּ֗סֶף (hak·ke·sep̄) Article | Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3701.htm">Strong's 3701: </a> Silver, money in proportion to עַל־ (‘al-) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5921.htm">Strong's 5921: </a> Above, over, upon, against the years הַשָּׁנִים֙ (haš·šā·nîm) Article | Noun - feminine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8141.htm">Strong's 8141: </a> A year left הַנּ֣וֹתָרֹ֔ת (han·nō·w·ṯā·rōṯ) Article | Verb - Nifal - Participle - feminine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3498.htm">Strong's 3498: </a> To jut over, exceed, to excel, to remain, be left, to leave, cause to abound, preserve until עַ֖ד (‘aḏ) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5704.htm">Strong's 5704: </a> As far as, even to, up to, until, while the next Year שְׁנַ֣ת (šə·naṯ) Noun - feminine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8141.htm">Strong's 8141: </a> A year of Jubilee, הַיֹּבֵ֑ל (hay·yō·ḇêl) Article | Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3104.htm">Strong's 3104: </a> A ram, ram's horn (a wind instrument) so that your valuation מֵֽעֶרְכֶּֽךָ׃ (mê·‘er·ke·ḵā) Preposition-m | Noun - masculine singular construct | second person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6187.htm">Strong's 6187: </a> A pile, equipment, estimate will be reduced. וְנִגְרַ֖ע (wə·niḡ·ra‘) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Nifal - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1639.htm">Strong's 1639: </a> To scrape off, to shave, remove, lessen, withhold <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/leviticus/27-18.htm">Leviticus 27:18 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/leviticus/27-18.htm">OT Law: Leviticus 27:18 But if he dedicates his field after (Le Lv Lev.) </a></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="/leviticus/27-17.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Leviticus 27:17"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Leviticus 27:17" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/leviticus/27-19.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Leviticus 27:19"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Leviticus 27:19" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhnew2.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
