The jubilie year was BOTH the fiftieth year, and the first year of the next cycle. It came every 49 years, not every fifty years. All time calculations were based on sevens because seven is the number that represents perfection.
This is exactly the same as the Sunday. It is not an extra day in a week. It is both the day after the seventh day and the first day of a new week.
Biblewriter,
I respect your salvation and your hard work with the Scriptures, but this is not at all possible for 49 to really mean 50, nor does it really mean 1.
There were 49 weeks of years, with each seventh being a Sabbath of release. Immediately following the seventh. counted and numbered week of years, there was a Jubilee, a Sabbath, of one year, so there was the special Sabbath of the Jubilee year.
The next cycle of seven year weeks of the Jubilee year not start to be counted again until the 50th normal year was complete.
God has a seventh day Sabbath counted from from the beginning of creation, but in Israel, in the Law, there are three high holy sabbaths in the year besides those seventh day sabbaths. The Feast of Unleavened bread's high holy Sabbath follows Passover day, and is on a Thursday in God's calendar, Pentecost, the 50th day from Passover, is also another high holy Sabbath, and follows the seventh day Sabbath, in God's revealed calendar. Jesus was crucified on Passover, which is Wednesday, the 4th day of the week in God's revealed calendar, and Unleavened bread high Sabbath is the 5th day of the week, in God's revealed calendar; then the regular weekly sabbath comes on the 7th day of the week. In Passover week, there are two sabbaths, with one being the very High holy one called unleavened bread.
The confusion in the western Church on the Sabbath that followed Jesus' death and burial makes a totally confused calculation of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. The day after Passover was a high holy Sabbath in the Law, and was the feast of unleavened bread: that sabbath is always on the 5th day of the week, in God's revealed calendar, and Passover is always on the 4th day of the week in God's [Enochian] revealed calendar, which Israel followed until the diaspora, when they took up Babylon's calendar, and became confused, and don't even know what day of the year it is, in God's revealed calendar, which Enoch prophesied they would do... and err, as to the days.
They made their calendar moon and sun based after the diaspora, instead of sun based, as Enoch revealed [new years begins at spring equinox, and at fall equinox [Adam was created at fall equinox time, and died at his birthday, thus the days of mourning even before the Law given to Israel were marked in ancient tribes]. There isa holy calendar and a civil calendar, and each begin with an equinox..
Every place that "new moon" is translated into English is "new month" in the Hebrew; but confusion abounds, as it does even on this plain reading of the Word about the 50th counted year after 49 weeks of years being a Jubilee.
Count "49 weeks of years", says the Scripture, then "the 50th year is a Jubilee year..." Then the count begins for the seven weeks of years, again, for next Jubilee to come after the 49th is ended, and then the 50th.
The Oracles were given only to Israel, not to the Gentile Church, and Israel was to rehearse them until each is fulfilled. There are 120 Jubilees [edit] from the prophecy God gave Noah to the New Creation... which new creation is oracled in the "8th day" after Tabernacles, and also oracled in circumcision on the 8th day, for Abraham's seed to wear in their flesh, of those who are descended through Isaac -for the promise is passed through Isaac.
The Adam spirit/nature/flesh is cut off from multiplying the Adam seed in the loins of the Adam flesh after 120 Jubilee years, which was given as a prophecy to Noah before the flood.
Israel is the name of the new creation human being flesh/nature which is oracled in God the Word, to come, when He invoked His own New Man name which was to come, over Jacob, and did it as a sign/oracle of the adoption into the New Man, one living Spirit/Christ, in the regeneration of all things. Then the Adam spirit will be no more, after the 120 Jubilees from Noah's prophecy. .....I'm researching when exactly that actually was. I'll be back.
