【释义】：

豁免年

At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.

And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the Lord's release.

Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release.

Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the Lord shall greatly bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it.

Deut. 15:1-4

每逢七年末一年，你要施行豁免。

豁免的定例乃是这样：凡债主要把所借给邻舍的豁免了，不可向邻舍和弟兄追讨。因为耶和华的豁免年已经宣告了。

若借给外邦人，你可以向他追讨；但借给你弟兄，无论是什么，你要松手豁免了。

你若留意听从耶和华你神的话，谨守遵行我今日所吩咐你这一切的命令，就必在你们中间没有穷人了。

《申命记》15∶1－4］
