Israel Speaks | Shmita - Sabbatical Year for the Land | Heaven TV7

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Shmita - Sabbatical Year for the Land

In the Old Testament, God commanded the Israelites to observe a Sabbatical year for the land every seven years. We visited a religious agricultural kibbutz in order to find out how this commandment is observed today.

"But in the seventh year the land is to have a year of sabbath rest, a sabbath to the Lord. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards. Do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the grapes of your untended vines. The land is to have a year of rest." Leviticus 25: 4-5
