The avowal referred to in this commandment was recited at the time of the Afternoon Offering on the last day of Passover, in the fourth and seventh years of the Sabbatical cycle. It could be recited in any language. The recital was, if possible, to take place in the temple, although if performed elsewhere it was considered valid.* * Mishneh Torah, Zeraim, Hilchoth Maaser Sheni Ve-Neta Revai XI, 5- 6
