Leviticus 25:13-15

Amplified Bible

¹³‘In this Year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his own [ancestral] property. ¹⁴If you sell anything to your friend or buy from your friend, you shall not wrong one another. ¹⁵According to the number of years after the Jubilee, you shall ^[a]buy from your friend. And he is to sell to you according to the number of years of crops [which may be harvested before you must restore the property to him].

Leviticus 25:15 The transfer of land in Israel was more like a lease than an outright purchase. Since all property reverted to the original owner at the Jubilee year, the purchaser would pay a price only for the years of use remaining until the next Jubilee.
