Exegesis
The final nominal clause shnat shabbaton {שְׁנַת שַּבָּתוֹן | šĕ-naṯ ša-bā-ṭôn} ‘year of sabbath rest’ with the predicate yihyeh {יִהְיֶה | yih-yé-h} specifies a sabbatical year for laarets {לָאָרֶץ | lā-’ā-reṣ}, highlighting ecological renewal. The sequence of paired prohibitions followed by a temporal-state clause underscores legal, agricultural, and social dimensions of land stewardship.
In context — Leviticus 25:5
You shall not reap the volunteer crop of your harvest, nor shall you gather the grapes of your unpruned vine. It shall be a year of sabbath rest for the land.
