Thematic Bible
Feast of jubilee » Enactments respecting » Restoration of all inheritances
In this way you will set the fiftieth year apart and proclaim freedom to all the inhabitants of the land. During this year all property that has been sold must be restored to the original owner or the descendants, and any who have been sold as slaves may return to their families.
In the jubilee year the field will go back to the person from whom it was bought, to whom it belongs as family property.
