Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim

liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; each of you is

to return to your family property and to your own

the land is mine and you reside in my land as

foreigners and strangers. -Leviticus 25:10,23

13 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate
