Genesis 1:9And God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered into one place, so that the dry land may appear.” And it was so.Genesis 13:14After Lot had departed, the LORD said to Abram, “Now lift up your eyes from the place where you are, and look to the north and south and east and west,Genesis 13:15for all the land that you see, I will give to you and your offspring forever.Genesis 13:16I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth, so that if one could count the dust of the earth, then your offspring could be counted.Genesis 13:17Get up and walk around the land, through its length and breadth, for I will give it to you.”Genesis 15:7The LORD also told him, “I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to possess.”Genesis 23:3Then Abraham got up from beside his dead wife and said to the Hittites,Genesis 23:4“I am a foreigner and an outsider among you. Give me a burial site among you so that I can bury my dead.”Genesis 23:5The Hittites replied to Abraham,Genesis 23:6“Listen to us, sir. You are God’s chosen one among us. Bury your dead in the finest of our tombs. None of us will withhold his tomb for burying your dead.”Genesis 23:7Then Abraham rose and bowed down before the people of the land, the Hittites.Genesis 23:8“If you are willing for me to bury my dead,” he said to them, “listen to me, and approach Ephron son of Zohar on my behalfGenesis 23:9to sell me the cave of Machpelah that belongs to him; it is at the end of his field. Let him sell it to me in your presence for full price, so that I may have a burial site.”Genesis 23:10Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth. So in the presence of all the Hittites who had come to the gate of his city, Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham,Genesis 23:11“No, my lord. Listen to me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of my people. Bury your dead.”Genesis 23:12Again Abraham bowed down before the people of the landGenesis 23:13and said to Ephron in their presence, “If you will please listen to me, I will pay you the price of the field. Accept it from me, so that I may bury my dead there.”Genesis 23:14Ephron answered Abraham,Genesis 23:15“Listen to me, my lord. The land is worth four hundred shekels of silver, but what is that between you and me? Bury your dead.”Genesis 23:16Abraham agreed to Ephron’s terms and weighed out for him the price he had named in the hearing of the Hittites: four hundred shekels of silver, according to the standard of the merchants.Genesis 23:17So Ephron’s field at Machpelah near Mamre, the cave that was in it, and all the trees within the boundaries of the field were deeded overGenesis 23:18to Abraham’s possession in the presence of all the Hittites who had come to the gate of his city.Genesis 23:19After this, Abraham buried his wife Sarah in the cave of the field at Machpelah near Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan.Genesis 23:20So the field and its cave were deeded by the Hittites to Abraham as a burial site.Genesis 33:19And the plot of ground where he pitched his tent, he purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver.Genesis 47:20So Joseph acquired for Pharaoh all the land in Egypt; the Egyptians, one and all, sold their fields because the famine was so severe upon them. The land became Pharaoh’s,Genesis 47:21and Joseph reduced the people to servitude from one end of Egypt to the other.Genesis 47:22However, he did not acquire the priests’ portion of the land, for it had been given to them by Pharaoh. They ate the rations that Pharaoh supplied; so they did not sell their land.Genesis 47:23Then Joseph said to the people, “Now that I have acquired you and your land for Pharaoh this day, here is seed for you to sow in the land.Genesis 47:24At harvest time, you are to give a fifth of it to Pharaoh, and four-fifths will be yours as seed for the field and food for yourselves and your households and children.”Genesis 47:25“You have saved our lives,” they said. “We have found favor in our lord’s eyes, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”Genesis 47:26So Joseph established a law that a fifth of the produce belongs to Pharaoh, and it is in effect in the land of Egypt to this day. Only the priests’ land does not belong to Pharaoh.Exodus 23:11but in the seventh year you must let it rest and lie fallow, so that the poor among your people may eat from the field and the wild animals may consume what they leave. Do the same with your vineyard and olive grove.Exodus 23:31And I will establish your borders from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the Euphrates. For I will deliver the inhabitants into your hand, and you will drive them out before you.Leviticus 25:15You are to buy from your neighbor according to the number of years since the last Jubilee; he is to sell to you according to the number of harvest years remaining.Leviticus 25:16You shall increase the price in proportion to a greater number of years, or decrease it in proportion to a lesser number of years; for he is selling you a given number of harvests.Leviticus 25:23The land must not be sold permanently, because it is Mine, and you are but foreigners and residents with Me.Leviticus 25:24Thus for every piece of property you possess, you must provide for the redemption of the land.Leviticus 25:25If your brother becomes impoverished and sells some of his property, his nearest of kin may come and redeem what his brother has sold.Leviticus 25:26Or if a man has no one to redeem it for him, but he prospers and acquires enough to redeem his land,Leviticus 25:27he shall calculate the years since its sale, repay the balance to the man to whom he sold it, and return to his property.Leviticus 25:28But if he cannot obtain enough to repay him, what he sold will remain in possession of the buyer until the Year of Jubilee. In the Jubilee, however, it is to be released, so that he may return to his property.Leviticus 25:29If a man sells a house in a walled city, he retains his right of redemption until a full year after its sale; during that year it may be redeemed.Leviticus 25:30If it is not redeemed by the end of a full year, then the house in the walled city is permanently transferred to its buyer and his descendants. It is not to be released in the Jubilee.Leviticus 25:31But houses in villages with no walls around them are to be considered as open fields. They may be redeemed, and they shall be released in the Jubilee.Leviticus 25:32As for the cities of the Levites, the Levites always have the right to redeem their houses in the cities they possess.Leviticus 25:33So whatever belongs to the Levites may be redeemed—a house sold in a city they possess—and must be released in the Jubilee, because the houses in the cities of the Levites are their possession among the Israelites.Leviticus 27:17If he consecrates his field during the Year of Jubilee, the price will stand according to your valuation.Leviticus 27:18But if he consecrates his field after the Jubilee, the priest is to calculate the price in proportion to the years left until the next Year of Jubilee, so that your valuation will be reduced.Leviticus 27:19And if the one who consecrated the field decides to redeem it, he must add a fifth to the assessed value, and it shall belong to him.Leviticus 27:20If, however, he does not redeem the field, or if he has sold it to another man, it may no longer be redeemed.Leviticus 27:21When the field is released in the Jubilee, it will become holy, like a field devoted to the LORD; it becomes the property of the priests.Leviticus 27:22Now if a man consecrates to the LORD a field he has purchased, which is not a part of his own property,Leviticus 27:23then the priest shall calculate for him the value up to the Year of Jubilee, and the man shall pay the assessed value on that day as a sacred offering to the LORD.Leviticus 27:24In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to the one from whom it was bought—the original owner of the land.Numbers 27:1Now the daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, belonged to the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph. These were the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. They approachedNumbers 27:2the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and the whole congregation, and said,Numbers 27:3“Our father died in the wilderness, but he was not among the followers of Korah who gathered together against the LORD. Instead, he died because of his own sin, and he had no sons.Numbers 27:4Why should the name of our father disappear from his clan because he had no sons? Give us property among our father’s brothers.”Numbers 27:5So Moses brought their case before the LORD,
