"And you shall count seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years; and the time of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years.
9 Then you shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement you shall make the trumpet to sound throughout all your land.
10 And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a Jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his possession, and each of you shall return to his family." Leviticus 25:8-10 NKJV
Was the Year of Jubilee considered to be Year #1 in the next Jubilee cycle or
was the following year considered to be Year #1?
If the former was true, the Jubilee cycle would have been, in practice, 49 years.
It would only be a 50-year cycle if the latter was true.
