Strong's Lexicon Iōbēl: Jubilee Original Word: Ἰωβήλ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew word יוֹבֵל (yobel), which refers to a ram's horn or trumpet, and by extension, the Jubilee year. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: H3104 - יוֹבֵל (yobel) Usage: The term "Ἰωβήλ" refers to the Jubilee, a significant event in the Hebrew calendar occurring every 50th year. It was a time of liberation and restoration, where slaves were freed, debts were forgiven, and land was returned to its original owners. This concept is deeply rooted in the idea of divine justice and mercy, emphasizing God's provision and the importance of rest and renewal. Cultural and Historical Background: The Jubilee year is outlined in Leviticus 25:8-55. It was a time of great social and economic reset for the Israelites, reflecting God's desire for equality and care for the poor and marginalized. The blowing of the ram's horn (yobel) signaled the start of this year. The Jubilee served as a reminder of God's sovereignty over the land and His provision for His people. It was a radical concept that challenged the socio-economic structures of the time, promoting a community-oriented approach to wealth and property.
