Thematic Bible: All israelites sold as, to be free at the jubilee


Thematic Bible



You shall thus consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim a release through the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, and each of you shall return to his own property, and each of you shall return to his family.

'He shall be with you as a hired man, as if he were a sojourner; he shall serve with you until the year of jubilee. 'He shall then go out from you, he and his sons with him, and shall go back to his family, that he may return to the property of his forefathers.

Even if he is not redeemed by these means, he shall still go out in the year of jubilee, he and his sons with him.
