Leviticus 27:21

But the field, when it goes out in the jubilee, shall be holy unto the LORD, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.

Consecrated. Hebrew, "a field of anathema "devoted and separated from common uses for ever to the Lord. (Haydock) Priests. They were bound to sell it from one jubilee to another to some of the same tribe, to which the person, who vowed it, had belonged. (Menochius) In the new law, religious people often consecrate themselves and their effects to the service of God; and it would be a sacrilege to alienate them from such pious uses to any thing profane. They are anathéma, a deposit of offering to the Lord; while those who violate them, are anathema, accursed. (Haydock) (Tirinus)

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
