The years of the sale That is, from the time of the sale to the jubilee. See above, Leviticus 25:15-16. The overplus That is, a convenient price for the years from the time of this redemption to the jubilee. Go out That is, out of the buyer's hand, without any redemption-money.

Leviticus 25:27-28

27 Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.

28 But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubile: and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.
