The author’s idea that Leviticus and Deuteronomy are just about leaving food for the poor is egregious oversimplification.
Those passages contain detailed and accurate descriptions of good management and bad management of lands including vineyards.
I suggest www.Shemitta.com.
Lots of working ideas.
Indirectly tied..., but I wonder if this book also touches on the Old Testament year of Jubilee.
I used to find teaching about periodic debt forgiveness to be completely baffling.... but lately I’ve started to glean some relevance to our world.
