At sinabi ng kamag-anak na manunubos: “Hindi ko ito matutubos para sa aking sarili, baka masira ko ang aking sariling mana. Ikaw na ang tumubos para sa iyong sarili sa karapatan kong tumubos, sapagkat hindi ko ito matutubos.”
Rashi
For I would mar my own inheritance. נַחֲלָתִי =] my offspring, as in, “the inheritance of Adonoy is children;”4Tehillim 127:3. to give my offspring a stigma, for it is stated, “Neither an Ammonite nor a Mo’avite may enter [into Adonoy’s community],”5Devarim 23:4. but he erred [by not interpreting it as] “an Ammonite but not an Ammonitess.”6He was not aware that the Torah prohibited only the male Mo’avites from entering the ranks of Bnei Yisroel, but the females were permitted. Alternatively, he knew that females were permitted to enter the ranks of Bnei Yisroel, but he feared that in future generations the ruling may be challenged, as it was in Dovid’s time by Do’eg.
Ibn Ezra
"Lest I ruin my own inheritance." He had a large estate. And some say it hints at his wife.
Ibn Ezra
"Redeem it for yourself." Here, I have given you the authority, for I cannot do it.
