This command is part of the Civil/Judicial Law.

The command fits with laws relating to Loving one's neighbor and to Template:Translink.

This passage is relevant to an understanding of Slavery. In view of its parallels in Leviticus 25:39-46 and Deuteronomy 15:3,12-18, it is also relevant to an understanding of Citizenship because this release in the seventh year is afforded to Hebrew slaves in particular, to the Sabbath:Sabbath because this relates to the Sabbath Year (or the "Year of Jubilee").Sabbath:Sabbath

Fulfillment

The continuing application of this command requires further investigation, as there are various views about the abiding validity of "sabbaths", whether or not all sabbaths are abrogated, or whether laws pertaining to the sabbath year are subject to different terms from laws pertaining to the sabbath day.

The command to forgive debts, in particular, finds its ultimate fulfillment in Christ, who forgave all our trespasses, and canceled the record of our debt to God by nailing it to the cross (Colossians 2:13-14).
