The Meaning of שַׁבַּת שַׁבָּתֹון in Leviticus 25:4
Leviticus 25:4 in Hebrew
וּבַשָּׁנָ֣ה הַשְּׁבִיעִ֗ת שַׁבַּ֤ת שַׁבָּתֹון֙ יִהְיֶ֣ה לָאָ֔רֶץ שַׁבָּ֖ת לַיהוָ֑ה שָֽׂדְךָ֙ לֹ֣א תִזְרָ֔ע וְכַרְמְךָ֖ לֹ֥א תִזְמֹֽר׃
Introduction to שַׁבַּת שַׁבָּתֹון
Leviticus 25:4 introduces the Sabbatical Year (שְׁמִטָּה, Shemittah), in which the land is to rest every seven years. The key phrase in this verse is:
שַׁבַּת שַׁבָּתֹון יִהְיֶה לָאָרֶץ – “A Sabbath of complete rest shall be for the land.”
The repetition of שַׁבַּת (Shabbat) and שַׁבָּתֹון (Shabbaton) emphasizes the sacred nature of this rest.
