And if the people of the land bring ware or any victuals on the sabbath day to sell, that we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day: and that we would leave the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt.
Y si los pueblos de la tierra traen mercancías o cualquier alimento en el día de reposo para vender, no compraremos nada de ellos en el día de reposo ni en ningún día santo. También observaremos el año séptimo dejando descansar nuestra tierra, y cancelaremos toda deuda.
El pueblo se compromete a no comerciar en días santos, dejar descansar la tierra cada siete años y perdonar las deudas.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Nehemiah, the Jewish people had returned from exile in Babylon and were rebuilding their community under Nehemiah's leadership. They entered into a covenant to faithfully observe God's laws, including refraining from buying goods on the Sabbath to honor it as a day of rest, as a response to their past disobedience that led to exile. This pledge also extended to letting the land rest every seventh year and canceling debts, reflecting the Mosaic laws designed to promote justice and dependence on God.
