“And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubile, then he shall count with him, and according unto his years shall he give him again the price of his redemption.”
If only a few years remain until the Year of Jubilee, they are to compute that and pay for their redemption accordingly. The fewer years remaining until the Jubilee, the lower the redemption cost. The consistent application of the Jubilee-adjusted pricing protects both the sold person and the redeemer: the cost is fair, determined by the covenant's calendar rather than by the market's pressures.
