"For six years you may sow your land and gather in its produce. But during the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie fallow, so that the poor of your people may eat of it and the beasts of the field may eat. You are to do the same with your vineyard and your olive grove. Six days you are to do your work, but on the seventh day you must cease, so that your ox and your donkey may rest, and the son of your maidservant, as well as the foreign resident, may refresh themselves." - Exodus 23:10-12
