Leviticus Chapter 25 Discussion Page 2

where does it say in the bible that in the year of jubilee all debts will be cancelled and He will restore all the years the locusts has taken?

I love how the commentator, when describing verses 39-55, completely "forgot" to mention the fact, that in verses 44-46, it makes clear that if the person isn't an Israelite, you can buy them, sell them, and keep them forever. You can also rule over them with rigor, because the verses are clear, only fellow Israelites aren't to be ruled over with rigor.

Servants, bondmen, Slaves: My least favorite book of the bible. I was born of a Bondman. I was born in a shack where you could look up through the rafters and see the moon and stars. I was born in a sharecroppers cabin. Now, a sharecropper is a man and his family that lives on a mans land and plants and picks the crop and shares the proceeds with the land owner.

End of Bible in a Year Reading day 36. The property laws are very interesting as well as land usage and ownership. There is a reward to be fair and show mercy with one's wealth.

Lev. 25:10 - is a 'shadow' of Acts ch. 2:37-38.

Dewey, Hebrews 9:8 states, "The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:" Reading farther down it is made clear to me that all the "sacrificial" ordinances were a precursor to Jesus' death. Then your quote of verse 15 applies to these "sacrifices" and the only thing that changed about those was Jesus' life instead of the lives of animals. This really doesn't speak to my question about the various sabbaths. And I'm equating these with paying tithe. I do not believe tithe was done away when Jesus gave His life for man thus, maybe these various sabbaths weren't either...thus my quandary remains.

Motdaugrnds, I see you have a heathy knowledge of Scripture. I will start by saying as you know that the children of God are no longer under the Old Testament given by God to Moses. Heb. 9:15 says. "And for this cause he Jesus is the mediator of the new testament or agreement that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressors that, were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance". God bless us all and also in the understand of his Word. Glory be to Jehovah in the highest though our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen!

Seems this chapter is a precursor to Christ's giving His life for our salvation. So question: Is this chapter, specifically where it refers to the sowing reaping of the land a 7-year time span with the 7th year being holy applicable to those of us who farm in this century? If so, please explain verses 4-6 as they seem to contradict themselves. And I know the Scriptures do NOT contradict themselves thus, I'm not understanding these verses.

This and the books in chapters 23,24 and 25 shadow how Jesus was the perfect sacrifice Jesus being the perfect sacrifice, prepared to be the new offering. Him being God with man bodily, more than enough to save those before,at his time on earth,and us the far of. This is God with us a human sacrifice he paid it all entering in once.

i HAVE TO RECITE THIS SCRIPTURE IN THE LOS ANGELES PREMIERE OF THE WHIPPING MAN AT THE WEST COAST JEWISH THEATER... I SIMPLY LOVE LOVE SAYING IT EVERYNIGHT

I love it!! I think every republican should read it!!

It is vital that all nations observe the rest for the land. The land needs rest just as all living things need rest. Every 7th year is to be a sabbath for the land. Look at the history of famines, the "dust bowl", for example. The abuse of land can be directly blamed for this kind of occurance. All people need to be aware of the sabbath rest for the land.
