20 If, however, they do not redeem the field, or if they have sold it to someone else, it can never be redeemed.
20 And if he will not redeem the field, or if he have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more.
20 But if he does not wish to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore.
20 But if he doesn't redeem it or sells the field to someone else, it can never be bought back.
20 But if he does not want to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore;
20 But if he does not want to buy it back, and it is sold to someone else, the field can no longer be bought back.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 27:20
Commentary on Leviticus 27:14-25
(Read Leviticus 27:14-25)
Our houses, lands, cattle, and all our substance, must be used to the glory of God. It is acceptable to him that a portion be given to support his worship, and to promote his cause. But God would not approve such a degree of zeal as ruined a man's family.
