THE JUBILEE YEAR

Interesting perspective:




1917 = jubilee
1967 = jubilee
2017 = jubilee

The mistake we make is we look at rosh hashanah as starting a new year when it is only the 7th month of the year that started nissan 1

There are so many calendars you have to find the correct one
Lunar
Solar
Prophetic
Julian
Gregorian
Enochian
Torah
Creators
Hebrew
etc

The anointed prince will come in the 49th year after the recapture of Jerusalem(1967) and before the jubilee year according to Daniel 9:25





We notice 1917 was a jubilee and 1967 was a jubilee

There are two beginnings in the year...the spiritual year starts nisan 1 and the civil year begins tishri 1

1917 was november 2 which happened after the civil year changed on tishri 1 1917.....1967 happened june 7 before tishri 1 1967 the count of the civil year changed therefore we aren't counting from civil years(tishri 1) but are counting from spiritual years(nisan 1) So 1917 was the jubilee year starting on nisan 1 and 1967 was was a jubilee year starting on nisan 1...the next jubilee year(50th year) would be 2017 starting on nisan 1...the anointed prince has to arrive in the 49th year according to daniel 9:25 and nisan 1 in 2017 starts february 27...therefore leaving 136 days maximum for the arrival of the anointed prince before the start of the 50th year

    9:20 – I remind you of a prophecy concerning the last days of which we now live. For there shall arise false Christ’s and false prophets, they shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch if it were possible they shall deceive the very elect.
    30:54 unless the people of America turn their hearts back to God and his teachings and his plan we will surely face the consequences revealed in the scriptures

  2. The anointed prince spoken in Daniel could be the Lord's end time servent spoken about in Isaiah 52:13-15 and 3rd Nephi 21:9-12. He will be rejected by the people and will be marred and disfigured before the Lord heals him. This servent will prepare the way before the Lord. He will be a temporal savior to the Lords people. Isaiah calls the servent David but he will be for the linage of David. He is spoken by the Prophet Joseph Smith and also he is mentioned in the dedication of the holy land. The Jews are looking forward to this servent to come forth. He will be instrumental in purifiying the saints in preparation on the Lords coming. He will lead the restoration of the House of Israel ( 10 tribes, Jews and Lehi's decendants). I believe he will be part of the test that you referred tto in your prior post. We of the current church are apostitsing as a whole. The judgements of God will destroy much of this country and only a remenet will remain. This servant will lead the pure saints in an Exudus out of the midst of Egypt (United States). As the black dragon will chase the daughter Zion into the wilderness. Much of the world will be destroyed with fire by the King of Assyria (Russian Alliance). The this servent will defeat the Russian Alliance with the power of God prior to the Millinium and the Lords coming.

  3. Nisan 1 begins March 27th, not February 27th.

  4. My understanding of the Jubilee year is it to be celebrated after 7 periods of 7 years, or the year after the 49th year. The scriptures identify this as the 50th year, but if the Jubilee occurs every 50 years then the next cycle of 7 sets of 7 years would start the year after the Jubilee year. This would be like adding a new day to the week after every 7 weeks. Some see this as like a leap year, but there are a couple of issues with that. In a leap year there are no new days of the week. The Jews add a full extra month during their leap year. We just add an additional day to the year once every 4 years, but it's not a new day of the week.

    Similarly when the scriptures mention an eighth day, it doesn't mean there's a new day of the week. It just means you count eight days from the first day. For example, Leviticus 23:39

    "Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the Lord seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath."

    In this case they were to celebrate a Sabbath on the first day, then they would also celebrate a normal Sabbath on the seventh day, but there would be an additional Sabbath the following day, the eighth day.

    I'm more inclined to be in the group that believes the Jubilee occurs every 49 years. After 49 years (7 cycles of 7 years) the next year is the Jubilee. From the first year of the 49-year period, the Jubilee is the 50th year. But the Jubilee year is also the first year of the next 49-year cycle. Kind of like having a a holiday on the first day of the week. It doesn't change the how many days occur in the week, it just makes the first day of the week a special day.

    If you believe the Jubilee actually occurs every 49 years (from year 1 of one 49-year period to year 1 of the next 49-year period it's 49 years), and if you're trying to count Jubilee years from 1917, then the next Jubilees are different.

    From fall 2017, adding 49 years becomes fall 1966. Another 49 years and you get fall 2015.

    As a side note, we need to be aware that because the year "begins" in the fall it would continue to the next fall. The Jewish new year begins in the fall, but month 1 is in the spring. Kind of confusing.

    Personally I think there are various cycles, but I'm not sold on 1917, 1967, and 2017 being Jubilee years. I'm not saying nothing extraordinary won't happen in 2017, I'm just not convinced it's a Jubilee year.


    The Jubilee is very symbolic of the Savior, who is the ultimate liberator of the captives and who paid all the debts we owe due to sin, so that we might be forgiven. So, it would make sense if the Savior was born in a Jubilee year or performed the atonement in one.

    If he was born in 1 BC, the most recent Jubilee year would have begun in the fall of 2008, and the next Jubilee would in 2057. If the atonement/resurrection was during a Jubilee, then I believe fall 1992 would've been the last Jubilee, and the next would begin in fall 2041. And I could be off 1-2 years in my calculations.

    Personally, I see the savior's birth more as the Jubilee year.

    The Jews weren't good at keeping the Jubilee year before the Babylonian captivity, and were even worse after. And, we can't really rely on calendar dating. Yes, some in the Jewish community may have decided to declare a Jubilee year, but they have little historical evidence beyond the past 100 years to support their conclusion of when a Jubilee year should be actually be observed. But, they are at least trying.

    Again, I'm not saying nothing will happen. Most likely there will be a number of notable events. I'm just saying not to get caught up in the hype of when a Jubilee year may or may not be.

    What is important is that we are being led by Spirit, and staying close to the Lord in our lives.

    1. Where I said "from fall 2017" it should be "from fall 1917." Hopefully my math isn't that bad that adding 49 to 2017 becomes 1966 :)
      It's annoying I can't edit my own comments. There are probably other typos or errors, but this one just jumped out at me.
