41 Then they and their children are to be released, and they will go back to their own clans and to the property of their ancestors.
41 And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
41 Then he shall go out from you, he and his children with him, and go back to his own clan and return to the possession of his fathers.
41 after which he and his children are set free to go back to his clan and his ancestral land.
41 And then he shall depart from you--he and his children with him--and shall return to his own family. He shall return to the possession of his fathers.
41 At that time he and his children will no longer be obligated to you, and they will return to their clans and go back to the land originally allotted to their ancestors.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 25:41
Commentary on Leviticus 25:39-55
(Read Leviticus 25:39-55)
A native Israelite, if sold for debt, or for a crime, was to serve but six years, and to go out the seventh. If he sold himself, through poverty, both his work and his usage must be such as were fitting for a son of Abraham. Masters are required to give to their servants that which is just and equal, John 8:32. We cannot ransom our fellow-sinners, but we may point out Christ to them; while by his grace our lives may adorn his gospel, express our love, show our gratitude, and glorify his holy name.
