The verse specifies that if many years remain until the Year of Jubilee, the individual must repay a portion of the purchase price based on the remaining time. This regulation reflects the broader themes of freedom and restoration found throughout the book of Leviticus, emphasizing the importance of familial ties and the right to reclaim one's property.

Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse is structured around a conditional clause introduced by אִם ('im, if), which sets the stage for the main action of repayment. The finite verb יָשִׁ֣יב (ya'shiv, he will repay) governs the clause, indicating the action to be taken based on the condition.
The sentence flows logically, with the condition of 'if many years remain' leading directly into the obligation to repay, emphasizing the relationship between the time left and the amount owed.

John Gill1697–1771Gill's Exposition of the Entire BibleIf [there be] yet many years behind,.... To the year of jubilee, and more than he had served: according unto them he shall give again the price of his redemption, out of the money that he was bought
Read John Gill on Leviticus 25 →Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(50-52) And he shall reckon with him.—That is, either the man himself when he is able to redeem himself, or his kindred. The authorities during the second Temple rightly point out that this passage enjoins the Hebrew to treat the heathen master fairly by duly compensating and compounding for the number of years he has still to serve till jubile, and to take no advantage of the idolater.
Read Charles John Ellicott on Leviticus 25 →CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges47–55. The case of Israelites who are slaves of resident foreigners (H but with a large admixture of P) Such a person might be redeemed, or, if he acquired the means, might redeem himself, the price of redemption to be calculated according to the number of years intervening before the Jubile, as in the case of the redemption of land (Leviticus 25:27). In any case the bondage was limited by the law of the Jubile.

Adv — AdvHAcmsa
stil: "To be still" is "to keep silence" (Ps 4:4, etc.) and so "to be quiet" (Ps 107:29, etc.) or "inactive" in any way (Jud 18:9; 1Ki 22:3; Zec 1:11, etc.). So "be still" in Ps 46:10 means "desist from your war" (compare the Revised Version margin "let be"). The "still small voice" of 1Ki 19:12 (the Revised Version margin "sound of gentle stillness") is due to taking the Hebrew demamah in its literal force of "silent," but the word here means "whisper"--"a whispering, little voice."

Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
