This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Of his inheritance; of any part or parcel of the crown land, or the prince’s inheritance.
To one of his servants; whether such servant be, strictly taken, a servant or bondman or in more large sense any of his servants in the court, and in office about it.
The year of liberty; the year of jubilee, as Lev_25:10,13,28.
To the prince; or his heirs, if the prince be dead.
His inheritance: this may be understood either of the prince or the servant. Either thus, though the land by gift go back to the prince or his heirs from the servant, yet what lands this servant had of his own inheritance shall descend to the heirs of that servant, and be theirs: or else thus, whatever lands of the prince are given to servants, by gift, shall at the year of jubilee revert to the sons of the prince, who shall repossess them, forasmuch as they are lands of inheritance, and of right belong to the heir.
For them; and for theirs after them.
