THE YEAR OF JUBILEE

Leviticus 25:10 speaks of hallowing the fif tieth year. Here we see that the jubilee was a holy year, a year hallowed to God and also to us. Elsewhere, the year of jubilee is called the accept able year of the Lord (Luke 4:18-19; Isa. 61:1-2). The acceptable year was the year in which the Lord accepted His people who were lost and who came back to Him. Therefore, on the Lord's side the year of jubilee was the year of accep tance.

The year of jubilee was a holy year and also an acceptable year. It was a year of proclaim ing freedom to all people, and it was a time of freedom, rest, enjoyment, and satisfaction. The proclamation of the jubilee by the Lord Jesus in Luke 4 governs the whole Gospel of Luke. Actu ally the entire New Testament age is the jubilee. The New Testament age is a time of proclaiming release to all those who have lost their posses sions and who have sold themselves into slavery. Today the proclaiming of the gospel is to bring these people back to their possession and to their

family—back to God and to the family, the house, of God.
