Leviticus 25:31

WEB

But the houses of the villages which have no wall around them shall be reckoned with the fields of the country; they may be redeemed; and they shall be released in the Jubilee.

KJV

But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubile.

Commentary

But the houses of the villages, which have no walls round about them,.... As there were many in the d ays of Joshua, the Scripture speaks of: the Jews suppose that such are meant, even though they were afterwards walled: shall be counted as the fields of the country; and subject to the same law as they: they may be redeemed; at any time before the year of jubilee, and if not, then they shall go out in the jubilee; to the original owners of them, freely, as Jarchi says, without paying anything for them.
