Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers 1878 · Public Domain (19) And if he that sanctified the field will…

According to the legislation during the second Temple, the rule here included his wife and his heirs, any one of whom had the right to redeem it. But the family in redeeming it had, as usual, to add one-fifth over and above the valuation price, for the reason already stated. (See Lev_27:13; Lev_27:15.)
