COMMENTS
|
*1 The land could not be sown in 7th year. Hence the seed of
the 6th year lasted 3 years*10 as follows
- for eating in 6th year from April thru September
(The year began in September---Jewish New year)
- for eating in 7th year all year
- for seeding in 8th year (From September to April)
The whole effect of 6th year seed ceased when the April
harvest was gathered in September (=September of 9th year)

LONGER FOOTNOTES
|
*10 Rashi points out that sometimes the Jubillee would
come out during the 6th-8th year and hence there would
be 4 years dependent on 6th year. Thus Rashi views the
Biblical statement of 3 years dependence on 6th year
as a TYPICAL (But not exhaustive) case. For other
examples of TYPICAL CASES see LIST401a.
