Leviticus 25:21 Context
19And the land shall yeeld her fruit, and ye shal eat your fill, and dwell therin in safetie. 20And if ye shall say, What shall we eate the seuenth yeere? Behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase: 21Then I will command my blessing vpon you in the sixt yeere, and it shall bring forth fruit for three yeeres. 22And ye shall sow the eight yeere, and eat yet of old fruit, vntill the ninth yeere: vntill her fruits come in, ye shall eate of the old store. 23¶ The land shall not be sold for euer: for the land is mine, for ye were strangers and soiourners with me.

Wesley's Notes for Leviticus 25:21
25:21 For three years - Not compleatly, but in great part, namely, for that part of the 6th year which was between the beginning of harvest and the beginning of the 7th year, for the whole 7th year, and for that part of the 8th year which was before the harvest, which reached almost until the beginning of the ninth year. This is added to shew the equity of this command. As God would hereby try their faith and obedience, so he gave them an eminent proof of his own exact providence and tender care over them in making provisions suitable to their necessities.
