Exegesis
The concluding clause laKohen tihyeh achuzzato {לַכֹּהֵן תִּהְיֶה אֲחֻזָּתֽוֹ | la-kō-hên ti-hyêh ʾa-ḥu-zzā-tô} ‘to the priest it shall be his possession’ expresses the legal transfer of ownership. English syntax closely mirrors the Hebrew sequence, clarifying the shift from release to consecration to inheritance.
In context — Leviticus 27:21
And the field, when it is released in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the LORD, like a field wholly dedicated; it shall belong to the priest as his possession.
