The Key Word — מִסְפָּר, be.mis.Pargenerated
The word מִסְפָּר (mispar) means 'number' and can refer to both definite and indefinite quantities. It is derived from a root that conveys the idea of counting or recounting.
In this context, it indicates the specific count of years since the last Jubilee, which is essential for determining the value of the land being bought. The parsing as a noun in the construct state suggests a close relationship with the following noun, שָׁנִים (shaním), meaning 'years'.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses buy and sell consistently to convey the transactional nature of the verse.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb, תִּקְנֶ֖ה (tikneh), 'you will buy', governs the entire sentence, with a prepositional phrase indicating the basis for the purchase and a second clause detailing the selling terms.
The structure highlights the relationship between the number of years since the Jubilee and the terms of sale, emphasizing the importance of timing in transactions.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates מִסְפָּר as ἀριθμὸν, which also means 'number'. This choice aligns with the Hebrew meaning but may suggest a more abstract counting rather than a narrative aspect.
The choice of κτήσῃ for תִּקְנֶ֖ה indicates a focus on the act of acquiring, which is consistent with the Hebrew intent but may carry a slightly different nuance in the Greek context.

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions.

Jubilee
A joyful shout or clangour of trumpets, the name of the great semi-centennial festival of the Hebrews. It lasted for a year. During this year the land was to be fallow, and the Israelites were only permitted to gather the spontaneous produce of the fields (Lev. 25:11, 12). All landed property during that year reverted to its original owner (13-34; 27:16-24), and all who were slaves were set free (25:39-54), and all debts were remitted.
The return of the jubilee year was proclaimed by a blast of trumpets which sounded throughout the land. There is no record in Scripture of the actual observance of this festival, but there are numerous allusions (Isa. 5:7, 8, 9, 10; 61:1, 2; Ezek. 7:12, 13;
A Hebrew festival, celebrated in every fiftieth year, which of course occurred after seven weeks of years, or seven times seven years, Le 25:10. Its name Jubilee, sounding or flowing, was significant of the joyful trumpet-peals that announced its arrival. During this year no one sowed or reaped; but all were satisfied with what the earth and the trees produced spontaneously. Each resumed possession of his inheritance, whether it were sold, mortgaged, or otherwise alienated; and Hebrew servants of every description were set free, with their wives an children, Le 25:1-55. The first nine days were spent in festivities, during which no one worked, and every one wore a crown on his head. On the tenth day, which was the day of solemn expiation, the Sanhedrin ordered the trumpets to…

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
