Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

14, 15. when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto the Lord, &c.-In this case, the house having been valued by the priest and sold, the proceeds of the sale were to be dedicated to the sanctuary. But if the owner wished, on second thought, to redeem it, he might have it by adding a fifth part to the price.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

27:14-25 Our houses, lands, cattle, and all our substance, must be used to the glory of God. It is acceptable to him that a portion be given to support his worship, and to promote his cause. But God would not approve such a degree of zeal as ruined a man's family.


Leviticus 27:13 But if he should ever wish to redeem it, then he shall add one-fifth of it to your valuation.
Leviticus 27:15 Yet if the one who consecrates it should wish to redeem his house, then he shall add one-fifth of your valuation price to it, so that it may be his. (NASB ©1995)
