Back to Treasury of Scripture Knowledge


Back to Leviticus'


A jubilee.Respecting the literal meaning of the word [ywbl,] {yobel,} or {yovel,} critics are not agreed.

The most natural derivation of the word seems to be from [hwbyl,] {hovil,} the {Hiphil} form of [ybl,] {yaval,} to recall, restore, or bring back, because this year restored all slaves to their liberty, and brought back all alienated estates to their primitive owners.

Accordingly the LXX. render it here [aphesis,] a "remission"; and Josephus says it signifies [eleutherian,] liberty.

Le 27:17

ye shall.
