31:10 The Year of Release was the seventh year of the calendar, not the seventh year of a given transaction between individuals. All debts were to be cancelled and Hebrew bond servants released from obligation to their creditors (see 15:1-3). • Festival of Shelters (also known as the Feast of Tabernacles): The people observed this celebration in the seventh month (Tishri, September/October) of every year to commemorate God’s miraculous preservation of Israel in the wilderness. It also celebrated the fall harvest (see 16:13-15).
