Literatur des Zweiten Tempels zu Dewarim 15:1

מִקֵּ֥ץ שֶֽׁבַע־שָׁנִ֖ים תַּעֲשֶׂ֥ה שְׁמִטָּֽה׃

Am Schlusse von sieben Jahren halte Erlass.

On the Virtues

It should be noted that Philo in prescribing the seventh year for the release is following Exodus and Deuteronomy rather than Leviticus, which limits the release to the year of Jubile (25:40). But he would hardly know this, for the LXX has there the “year of release” (ἀφέσεως), and in Deut. 15:1 and 9 he would find the seventh year called by the same name.
