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


Thematic Bible



Set aside and consecrate the fiftieth year to declare liberty throughout the land for all of its inhabitants. It is to be a jubilee for you. Every person is to return to his own land that he has inherited. Likewise, every person is to return to his tribe.

Instead, he is to serve with you like a hired servant or a traveler who lives with you, until the year of jubilee. Then he and his children with him may leave to return to his family and his ancestor's inheritance.

If he isn't redeemed by these, then he is to be set free in the year of jubilee he and his children with him
