Leviticus 25:23

²³“‘The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and live as foreigners with me.

Leviticus 25 outlines God's commands for the Sabbath year and the Year of Jubilee, establishing a rhythm of rest and restoration for the land and its people. This chapter introduces radical economic and social principles designed to prevent permanent poverty, preserve tribal land inheritances, and remind Israel that God is the ultimate owner of all things. It's a profound vision of justice, mercy, and dependence on God's provision, culminating in a call to remember their liberation from slavery in Egypt.
