Chemita

Here is the book on Shemitah in the "Golden Mitzvah" collection.

The mandatory cessation of agricultural work, the sanctity of fruits and the cancellation of debts are the axes of the Shemita, a mitzvah nicknamed "Shabbat of the land" which is renewed every 7 years.

As with the weekly rest period, it comes to remind us who the true Master of the place is, who grants us his blessing and on whom our success depends.

This work by Rabbi Gabriel Dayan comprehensively answers all your questions about the Shmita, whether you live in the Land of Israel or elsewhere:

* What types of work are prohibited?
* How should we behave with fruit?
* When should we do the Biour?
* Which debts are cancelled?
* Can we rely on the "Heter Mekhira"?
* How to write a Prozboul

For the past few decades, following the massive return of Jews to their land, this mitzvah, forgotten in the darkness of exile, has once again been meticulously observed.

It is a joy to be able to fully experience this "Shabbat for Hashem".
