SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:31
Asimismo, que si los pueblos de la tierra trajesen a vender mercaderías y comestibles en día de sábado, nada tomaríamos de ellos en sábado, ni en día santo; y que dejaríamos el ańo séptimo, y remitiríamos toda deuda.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Nehemiah 10:31
Verse 31. Bring ware] We will most solemnly keep the Sabbath. Leave the seventh year-We will let the land have its Sabbath, and rest every seventh year. See on Exod. xxiii. 10, 11.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 31. And if the people of the land bring ware , etc.] Any thing to be sold, any sort of goods, that being sold might be taken away, as the word signifies; or any victuals on the sabbath day to sell ; anything to make food of; wheat or barley, as Aben Ezra interprets it; the same word is rendered corn, (see Gill on “ Genesis 42:1”); to sell which was not lawful on the sabbath day, (see Amos 8:5) that we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day ; any festival, as the feast of the passover, pentecost, and tabernacles: and that we would leave the seventh year : the ground untilled in that year, the vines unpruned, and the fruits of the earth, which sprung of themselves, for the poor to gather, ( Leviticus 25:4-7), and the exaction of every debt ; that they would not demand the payment of any debt on the seventh year, as the law required they should not, ( Deuteronomy 15:2).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-31 - Conversion is separating from the course and custom of this world devoting ourselves to the conduct directed by the word of God. When we bind ourselves to do the commandments of God, it is to do all his commandments, and to look to him as the Lord, and our Lord.
